Marcus always thought life had a plan: paint by day, avoid commitment by night. But when he’s literally struck by lightning in front of his apartment, things take a wild turn—especially when his cute, quirky neighbor, AJ, crashes his UPS truck after witnessing the whole thing.
AJ, a free-spirited dreamer with a big heart, heroically performs CPR to save Marcus’s life. As they navigate the aftermath of the bizarre accident, their small neighborhood community rallies together. Tenesha, the outspoken single mom next door, along with her hilarious son Po and their mischievous dog Marco, become unlikely friends to both men.
While Marcus struggles to recover and AJ faces his own insecurities, the group leans on each other for support. As sparks of romance start flying between Marcus and AJ, the pair soon realize that fate might have more in store than either of them imagined.
When chaos threatens their lives again, AJ steps up, proving that lightning can strike twice—but love, once ignited, is there to stay.
Filled with humor, heart, and unexpected twists, "Struck by Lightning" is a feel-good rom-com about finding love when you least expect it and the beautiful messiness of community.
