Meet Farrah
"The Foolish Heart" "By now, she was supposed to be in a relationship. Everything was supposed to happen just the way she’d imagine. It all went down in flames due to his lack of commitment." Farrah is driven, focused, and knows her worth until she runs into Jamie. After a long time of putting love on the back-burner, the guard quickly crumbled over this man's potential. She wasn’t asking for the romantic feelings, however, when they showed up, it was hard to let go. |
Meet Jamie
"Mr. I'm Not Ready" Jamie owned his own home and was doing very well for himself. Many women viewed him to be a great catch. He didn’t have children although he was engaged briefly some years back, but they mutually decided that marriage wasn’t the best thing for them. He insinuated that the broken engagement made him guarded in many relationship attempts. Which puzzled Farrah because if it was a mutual decision (his story) why would that make him guarded when it came to starting something new. Although his relationship story left her with questions and more red flags, Farrah still wanted him. That spark only grew when they talked. She felt her focus quickly shift from being an independent career-oriented woman to just a girl who wanted to love and give love. That made her realize it was inside of her all along. |
