They never expected love to cost this much.

What happens when the life you’ve built conflicts with what you believe?

Michael and Sam were never supposed to fall in love, but what started as friendship became something deeper—something that felt right, safe, and worth holding onto.

Until it wasn’t.

When their relationship collides with Michael’s deeply rooted faith, everything begins to unravel.

Following God doesn’t always mean choosing what feels good, and walking away doesn’t always feel like freedom.
