    [Previously titled; Serendipity] "Are we a moment of illusion or a lifetime of truth?" Viraj Randhawa is a man battling with his own demons. He has lived with a sense of unrequitedness all his life. Now he is guarded and emotionally unavailable, often due to his own shortcomings. Vani Agnihotri is a woman who has forever wished to just belong. She has her own insecurities and abandonment issues that lead her to overanalyze every gesture and word. A marriage binds them, and despite six months of fleeting moments, unsaid words, and the flutter they feel around each other. There is an invisible chasm between them that she desperately tries to fill, but he is blinded to the truth of her emotions that are laid bare in front of him. When one moment shifts their entire relationship, and he realizes he is turning into what he swore he would never become, will they fight for each other and reconcile, or will the chasm widen further, swallowing both in its darkness?

    Melody and Micah Whitley have built a life together in the small town of Valley Falls. They fell in love in college, where Micah was a star baseball pitcher-until a shoulder injury ended his dreams of the major leagues. Melody is used to standing beside the people she loves, adjusting when plans change. She and her sister grew up in foster care, and when Dana passed away, Melody stepped into motherhood when they adopted her niece, Daisy. When Micah agrees to help his childhood friend's sister, Audra, and her young son, Ben, he sees it as an opportunity to pay back an old debt. Micah invests deeply in Ben's life, but as his attention shifts, Melody and Daisy are pushed aside, and the marriage begins to strain under the weight of unspoken grief, unmet needs, and blurred boundaries. Note: There are mentions of infertility, adoption, foster care, grief, addiction/self-harm and death of a non-main character. There is no physical cheating, but there is some OW drama and emotional betrayal/infidelity. Christian and faith themes woven throughout.

    "They shared a child, a home, a bed... just not their hearts." For five long years, Maahi Dev Singhania lived in a marriage built on expectations-not emotions. A wedding forced by families, a child born out of pressure, and nights that felt more like obligation than love. Dev, her cold yet magnetic husband, never let her go-but never really held her close either. They touched, but never connected. Spoke, but never heard. Stayed, but never belonged. But when Maahi leaves for a month to care for her ailing mother-breaking their silent, suffocating routine-something shifts. For the first time, Dev is alone with his silence. And Maahi, with her pain. And in that distance... they begin to feel everything they've ignored for years. An intense, slow-burn journey of misunderstandings, emotional ache, and the chaos of almost-love. Will they finally face the feelings they buried-or stay trapped in the story of what could've been?
