He who holds the key can unlock the heart...

Sabrina

A positive pregnancy test seems like the last thing she needs, especially after her wedding fell apart, with her family's publishing company nearing bankruptcy, and her sister trying to interfere with her happiness. As she balances finding an elusive man to coordinate his biography, she debates how to tell Nate that their short fling left a lifelong impression in the form of a baby.

Torn with the need to hunt down Nate and the expectations to travel for work, she's got no time to focus on the fact she'll be a mother soon. When her best friend shows her a tabloid of Sabrina in bed with one of the world's most famous actors, she's stunned. And guarded. So when she flies to New York for a meeting about the biography, she's not prepared to see Nate there at the filming site. It feels good to be reunited, but his fame is a curse she doesn't want to subject their child to. Besides, it's not like he'd stick around to actually start a family with her, right?

Nate

It doesn't matter that he left her a goodbye note at the hotel in Paris. Sabrina doesn't answer any calls or texts. Desperate to find her, he enlists the help of his friends. His uncle and ex continue to stir up trouble, too, further pulling him from happiness. Seeing that tabloid doesn't help one bit either. Yet, when he crosses paths with Sabrina on the set, he's determined to show her that he's fresh out of secrets.

Protecting her from the reach of the paparazzi isn't a simple feat. He tries to work around filming to keep her in his life, but he's not the only one who notices she seems nervous, as though she's still keeping secrets from him.

Just when he wants to cling to the possibility of retiring early to focus on a real relationship—hoping that Sabrina isn't just another gold-digger out to hurt him—she drops one heckuva bombshell on him… one he's not sure how to accept.
