Narrado por: Tonya Rogers

Joe, a millionaire entrepreneur, returns to his hometown in New Zealand after years of building his empire abroad. With success and wealth, the only void in his life is the absence of genuine lover and connection. He is grumpy, often taking out his frustrations on his sassy secretary, a lady unafraid to give it back as good as she gets it.

Upon his return, he is reminded of his school sweetheart, Vikki, a smart and highly educated woman, now his neighbor's daughter, and an employee in his company. Their paths cross in a chance encounter when she is revealed to be the new consultant hired for a special project. The connection is instantaneous, their past making their meetings more affectionate with unsaid emotions. But a secret looming overhead between them.

Vikki harbors a secret – an unexpected pregnancy, the result of a fleeting and passionate reunion they had a year ago during a brief business trip Joe made back to New Zealand. The secret weighs heavy on her as she's caught between revealing the truth and shielding herself from potential heartbreak.

Their office interactions are a dance of push and pull. Joe is torn between his role as the grumpy boss, the office lover, and the old school lover who remembers the young, vivacious Vikki. When they’re assigned to work on a major project, the close proximity stokes the flame of their once passionate love.

During a late-night work session, Vikki finally reveals her secret - their daughter, a beautiful reflection of their past love. The revelation shakes Joe, making him question his priorities and past choices. There's a mix of anger, shock, but mostly guilt for not being there. However, Vikki’s smart demeanor and education have allowed her to provide, but she admits the emotional toll it takes.

They both rekindle their romance, spending weekends at Joe's mansion, family trips around the picturesque landscapes of New Zealand, and evening walks where Vikki tutors Joe on parenthood. However, as love blossoms, so does the challenge of merging their worlds. Joe's secretary, initially resentful of Vikki’s return into Joe’s life, becomes an unexpected ally, bonding with Vikki over shared experiences and offering comedic relief during tense office scenarios.

Joe's role in his daughter's life becomes more pronounced. He begins to understand the value of family and the gaps wealth alone can't fill. Vikki and Joe's relationship deepens, grounded in mature understanding, past regrets, and a shared dream for the future.

But just as everything seems to be going well, a business crisis threatens to pull Joe away. It’s a test of his commitment and priorities. With Vikki’s support, he manages to strike a balance between his work and family life.

Finally, a grand gesture sets the stage for the climax. Joe organizes a surprise gathering, bringing together their shared friends, family, and office colleagues. Under the stars, amidst the serene beauty of New Zealand's beaches, Joe proposes to Vikki, promising to be there for her and their daughter, and asking for a second chance of love now and always.

Their love story concludes with their wedding, a beautiful blend of modernity and tradition, mirroring their journey - full of ups, downs, but ultimately, love.
