When 22-year-old Kat takes her shift at Sweet, the cutest candy shop in town, she expects the usual-colorful jars, Skittles scoops, and the comfort of routine. What she doesn't expect is Todd: the quiet college guy who walks in one afternoon and changes her entire rhythm.
He's gentle.
Curious.
A little awkward.
And completely unlike anyone she's ever met.
What begins as small talk over candy jars quickly turns into late-night drives, shared playlists, and soft moments Kat didn't know she was allowed to have. Todd isn't flashy or loud-he's steady. Warm. The kind of safe she's never felt with anyone before.
But with school stress, family pressure, and old fears creeping in, Kat has to learn how to trust herself-and him-one sweet moment at a time.
