"Eve is pregnant after a one-night stand, and even more surprising than her pregnancy? The reactions to it. Her best friend, struggling with infertility, emotionally ghosts her. Eve’s baby daddy is in the picture, but it’s complicated. Thankfully, Eve has Shep, who has been hanging out in the friend zone for years. He literally shows up with a bike that has a baby seat attached. If that’s not New York City for “I love you,” then what is? And, sure, this is a love story. But it’s also about all the ways love shows up. Eve’s disappointing friend and baby daddy try to show up the best ways they can. And at the end of the day, that’s the ideal family, right? Never perfect but always trying."
