Eye to Eye

 Aster Green lives an isolated life in inner Melbourne, her heart closed off to love. Teaching, while rewarding for some, does little to spark her creative fire. She longs to follow her passion for interior design but can’t put her forgotten degree to use until she makes up for her past.

Single father Cole Hendrik’s life feels unbalanced. He juggles carpentry work, his desire for a promotion, late-night studying, and parenting his neurodiverse son, Finn, as best he can. His attention, once perpetually focused on improvement, shifts when he meets Aster, Finn’s new teacher.

Taking a chance on a different future, Aster fights for her place in the design world, unknowingly landing herself a job at the factory Cole is building. As their professional paths cross, Aster can’t ignore his drive, loyalty and attentiveness, nor can Cole deny the pull of Aster’s joy or the sway of her hips when she dances.

As they explore the thrills of a new relationship through food and music, the weight of their pasts starts pulling them in different directions.

Can they learn to see eye to eye?
