Abby's life in New York is turned upside down when she discovers she's pregnant by her high school sweetheart, Joey, a secret she's kept from her strict, tradition-bound Italian parents. Determined to protect their family's reputation, they send her to a secluded monastery in Italy to give birth in silence. There, she welcomes her daughter, Ruby, into the world before returning to New York seven years later with a carefully crafted story.

But lies have a way of unravelling. When fate reunites Abby with Joey, his suspicions ignite a dangerous game of truth and deception. As he presses for answers, Abby fights to keep her past buried—until Ruby suddenly falls ill, forcing her to confront a long-buried secret that could change everything.

With love, identity, and redemption on the line, Abby faces an impossible choice. Will she break free from the past, or will its grip prove too strong to escape?

A compelling tale of secrets, sacrifice, and the power of love.
