Laura Belrose and Tom Welling were high school sweethearts in upstate New York whose young love resulted in a pregnancy at age 18. Because Laura came from old-money Georgia wealth and Tom was a working-class farm boy and star quarterback, Laura’s elitist parents tore them apart. They forced Laura back to Georgia, lying to her that Tom abandoned her, and lying to Tom that Laura miscarried the baby. Years later, Laura moves to New York City to gain independence and interviews at The Daily Planet, only to find Tom is now the devastatingly handsome, workaholic CEO. Laura is secretly raising their 7-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, but believes Tom abandoned them. Tom believes Laura left him after a tragic loss. Hired as his one-on-one editorial assistant, they are thrust into a high-tension, slow-burn professional environment wrapped in bitter misunderstandings, hidden truths, and an undeniable, enduring love.
