While she strives to protect her heart from any risk of falling in love again in the real world, Miranda continues to write the story of Nicole and Garrett, young lovers determined to build a life together at any cost. Among their dilemmas is a blackmail scheme to ruin Nicole’s acting career, and a race against time to find the whereabouts of Garrett’s infant son. As Miranda’s journey unfolds, a weekend getaway to be alone with herself unexpectedly opens a door for love to find its way to her again.
