Stranded & Vulnerable (Her Older Man)

Tucker has lived the past ten years in self imposed exile, hiding from the world, and slowly drinking himself to death. He was never the same after losing his wife and daughter in a tragic accident, and he never saw a reason to try dating again.

And then he meets Amanda, a homeless girl stranded in a grocery store parking lot, baking in the hot sun. He notices she's about the same age his daughter would have been, and even his icy heart melts a little when he sees the condition she's in.

He's not doing anything better with his life, so he decides to take her in like a stray cat, and nurse her back to health.

She's extremely grateful for the help, and smitten with the older stranger who seems willing to do anything to help her. They start doing everything together, and despite their age gap, are magnetically drawn to each other.
