Single dad. Country music star. Still figuring it all out. Riley Green may be known to the world as a chart-topping country artist, but at home, he's just Dad-chief pancake flipper, hair detangler, and bedtime storyteller to his five-year-old daughter, Abilene. After years on the road chasing the dream, Riley's finally pressing pause to focus on what matters most: raising his little girl and finding peace in the quiet moments. But peace is a fragile thing-and so is the heart. When Riley returns to the studio for the first time in months, he's not expecting sparks to fly... especially not with the warm, grounded woman behind the front desk. Bellamy isn't chasing fame. She sees Riley for who he is beneath the spotlight-and more importantly, she sees Abilene too. As the past resurfaces and new beginnings take root, Riley is left wondering: can you truly have it all-music, love, and a family that feels like home? Tender, honest, and full of Southern charm, this story is a moving tribute to the healing power of fatherhood, second chances, and the quiet kind of love that sneaks in when you're finally ready to receive it.
