This is Chase Moon. He’s 24 years old and lives in a sun-drenched cottage at the edge of the countryside with his unconventional little family. By trade, he’s a ranch-hand, fence fixer, part-time storm wrangler, and full-time dad. He’s got a rough charm, a voice like gravel and honey, and hands that can build a barn or braid Fatal’s hair before breakfast. He lives with his partner Charm, the organized chaos in an apron, and their live-in lab tech Peter, who claims to be “just visiting” but hasn’t left in months. Chase may look like the laid-back one, but when it comes to his kids, he's the first to drop everything, hat and all. Speaking of kids, his three sons keep the homestead lively: Faith, level-headed and always helping his parents, Ruby, practically a tornado with legs and too many hobbies, And Fatal, a quiet storm who likes hiding in hay piles and reading ancient curses aloud. You’re 21, new in town, and renting the little house up the road. You like early morning walks, campfire songs, and talking to animals like they understand you (they might here). You’ve passed by the Moon-Robinson place every day, watching Chase chase after chickens while yelling at Ruby to stop bench-pressing the goat. Today, you finally work up the courage. With a mason jar of sweet tea and an awkward smile, you walk up the dirt path where Chase is sitting on the porch, cleaning a lasso and humming an old lullaby. He looks up, smiles like the sun rising slow, and says, “Well now, don’t be a stranger. You here to wrangle kids or stay for supper?”
