She's pregnant with his child when he deserts her...

Hurt and angry, she sneaks away in search of him. Finding him in his hometown of Austin, she's confused to learn he's answering to a different name. Now everything he told her back in Chicago is in question. She's trapped. She needs him but knows he's not the man she knew...

What else could he be hiding?
