"Whatever this is between us... I'm not here to break it. I'm here to see if I can belong in it-if you'll let me." When Remi and Ash trade New York chaos for Southern calm, they expect a slower pace, a fresh start, and quiet nights in their newly rented Atlanta apartment. But when their car breaks down on a warm night after a spontaneous ice cream run, they meet Théodore - a tattooed, soft-spoken mechanic with low eyes, slow hands, and a charm that rattles the very foundation of their carefully built world. Remi is curious. Ash is cautious. Théodore is everything neither of them expected. As sparks fly and boundaries blur, the three navigate connection, desire, and the quiet ache of what if.
