Dem Glück so nah (2016)
Im Alter von sieben Jahren lernt Ben Morton das Nachbarsmädchen Ava Kennedy kennen – womit sich sein Leben für immer verändert. Mit ihr hat er seine spätere Traumfrau gefunden. Als Teenager lassen sich die beiden aufeinander ein, tanzen auf dem Abschlussball und tauschen erste Küsse. Zusammen werden sie erwachsen, während ihre Liebe zueinander wächst und ein starkes Band sie untrennbar verbindet. Nach einer wunderschönen Hochzeit erwarten das Pärchen Nachwuchs. Es könnte nicht perfekter laufen, ein gemeinsames Leben voller Freude und Liebe liegt vor ihnen. Doch dann stellt ein schwerer Schicksalsschlag Ben und Ava unerwartet vor eine große Herausforderung.
