Stranded in Florence - Rob Rausch

Lorena Mendoza's road trip to Nashville is supposed to be about one thing: music. Inspiration. A reset for the songwriting she's been struggling to finish. Instead, a blown tire strands her in Florence, Alabama-a town she never meant to stop in.

Then she meets Rob.

Rob Rausch lives a quiet life wrangling wildlife and keeping to himself, but somehow Lorena keeps ending up in his orbit. What starts as a stranger's kindness slowly turns into something else as he shows her the town-mom-and-pop shops, late nights at local bars, line dancing, and long conversations about music, life, and the strange comfort of being understood.

Florence was supposed to be a delay.

But the longer Lorena stays, the more it begins to feel like something she didn't know she needed.

A slow-burn small-town rom-com about music, unexpected connections, and the kind of love that finds you when you're just passing through
