Murphy's Romance
“Just when you think you've found the right guy, someone even worse comes along.”
Emma, a divorced single mother seeking to start her life over, moves to a small town in Arizona. She befriends Murphy, the older local pharmacist, but things turn complicated when her ex-husband shows up.
