She’s all mindful routines and measured steps. He’s impulsive charm and constant motion. Can opposites find balance—or will sparks turn into burnout?

Ella has her life down to a science. Living with fibromyalgia means pacing, boundaries, and saying no—even when she wants to say yes. Starting a mindfulness challenge for her friends is a big step. Falling for a fast-talking, gym-obsessed extrovert? That’s not in the plan.

Josiah is everything she’s not: loud, spontaneous, always in motion. But when he joins her mindfulness challenge just to spend more time with her, Ella starts to see beyond the muscles and mischief. He’s kind. Steady. Curious. And despite herself, she starts to fall.

But love isn’t simple—especially when your lives run at different speeds. Can Ella and Josiah find a rhythm that works for both of them, or are they destined to crash and burn?
