Seven Hours To Moore View

At twenty-six, Melanie Griffiths never imagined her life would circle back to the place she once tried to leave behind. With her five-year-old daughter, Lilly, depending on her, she's built a fragile sense of stability-despite raising her child alone after her ex walked away without a second glance.

But when her father falls seriously ill, everything changes.

Forced to return home to Moore View-a quiet town seven hours from the life she knows-she takes on the role of caregiver, confronting not only the weight of her father's worsening alcohol-related liver disease but also the memories she thought she'd buried.

Next door lives a man who understands responsibility all too well.

At twenty-nine, Asher Bentley, a devoted single father with full custody of his own five-year-old daughter, Raine. Known around town as the dependable handyman, he keeps his life simple, structured, and drama-free. He doesn't "mess around"-not with work, not with parenting, and definitely not with relationships.

But proximity has a way of breaking down even the strongest walls.

As their daughters form an easy friendship, the two are drawn into each other's lives in ways neither expected. Between hospital visits, sleepless nights, and the quiet struggles of single parenthood, an unexpected connection begins to grow-one built on shared burdens, resilience, and the fragile hope of something more.

Yet with illness looming, past wounds still raw, and the fear of losing everything they've fought to protect, they must decide if love is worth the risk... or just another heartbreak waiting to happen.
