A devastating car accident has taken a loving couple away from their newborn daughter. She's been given to her godparents to be raised, but one's a rich playboy, and the other's an earnest nanny that the world believes is a home-wrecker. Mario offers Sabrina a fortune to raise the child with him. Will she find that she can fake love if she makes enough money doing so? Mario may have slept around in the past, but will the love Sabrina has for her goddaughter spread some goodwill to the orphan's godfather? Mario might just make this woman an offer she can't refuse-his riches and his heart. (Source: Renta!)
