8 | Melissa dodged Jock’s calls for 5 months—then one coffee changed everything. A hippie artist, a film student, and an unexpected love story. But her parents warned: “Proceed with caution.”
Description
When 19-year-old Jock, a clean-cut film student from Nova Scotia, met 25-year-old free-spirited Melissa, an art student with a hippie soul from Alberta, sparks flew—but only for him.
Melissa wasn’t looking for romance—especially not with Jock. He wasn’t her type, not even close. But Jock saw something in her worth waiting for… worth calling for… every two weeks, for five months.
Melissa dodged his calls for five months (even enlisting her roommate to help). But after a heartbreaking family tragedy, Melissa said yes to coffee…and everything changed.
One coffee turned into conversation which turned into a second chance, then a third date… and then, unexpectedly, love. Wrapped in the warmth of Jock’s family, Melissa began to heal—and to hope. Jock thought he had found home with Melissa. But even love has its trials and there was a season of goodbye
Jock knew: this was the woman he wanted forever. But her parents gave a warning—proceed with caution.
Could a grounded dreamer and a wandering artist write a love story that would last?
