Victoria tries to rebuild her life after her marriage collapses overnight.
Victoria commands her emergency room with icy precision, yet the same control fails her when her husband disappears without a word. The silence of her immaculate house drives her to offer a spare room to Ian, a twenty-year-old vocalist dripping in tattoos and chaotic energy. She pictures herself mentoring a lost kid; instead, his raw loyalty and unfiltered perspective dismantle the walls she spent a decade building. What begins as temporary shelter becomes a collision of two fractured people learning that starting over means letting someone else in.
