After years of putting everyone else first, widowed single dad Ethan Collins decides to try again carefully. His days revolve around lesson plans and bedtime stories, the kind of order that leaves little space for surprise. Then one late-night swipe on the 11:11 app connects him with Maya Hart, a children’s author who writes about bravery but still doubts her own.
What starts as friendly messages turns into something neither expected. Their chats stretch past midnight, laughter softens into confession, and before long, they’re standing on the edge of something that feels real. But Ethan’s still learning to live with loss, and Maya’s still guarding old wounds. Love, for both, means stepping into uncertainty.
As rain gives way to calm mornings, they begin to see that healing doesn’t erase what came before it grows from it.
When love finally returns, can they trust it not to disappear again?
