When an orthopedic surgeon fleeing his past meets a circus performer with a dangerously dark secret, their convenient arrangement quickly becomes anything but simple—especially when genuine feelings start threatening their carefully drawn boundaries. Fionn wants nothing more than to rebuild his quiet life in small-town Nebraska, but Rose's arrival (along with her motorcycle tricks, her murder hobby, and her undeniable charm) turns his head-down strategy completely upside down. As their friends-with-benefits situation heats up and darkly hilarious chaos ensues, both discover that running from your demons only works until you meet someone worth staying for. Buckle up for a deliciously spicy, pitch-black romantic comedy that proves sometimes the messiest hearts make the best love stories.

Dark, sensual indie rock and alternative with raw emotional intensity. Moody vocals over heavy guitars, sultry R&B undertones, and intimate acoustic moments. Think leather jackets and late-night confessions—dangerous chemistry wrapped in small-town isolation. Spicy, unapologetic, electric tension.
