(Rewritten version of 'Playboy Rehab' - Wattys 2014 Winner) Leslie King is a publicist nestled in the heart of Los Angeles representing Garrett Harrison, president of Harrison Incorporated - one of the world's leading real estate and brokerage empires. Having had Garrett Harrison as her client for years, she has grown used to the uniformity in her job - not to mention the uniformity in her personal life. However, when Garrett Harrison shares the news of his retirement, Leslie's professional and personal life becomes anything but the harmonious routine she has grown used to. Sebastian Harrison - handsome Hollywood playboy and the youngest son of Garrett Harrison - enters Leslie's life in the most unusual of ways as she is asked to turn the King of Debauchery into a man fit and trusted enough to become the CEO of Harrison Incorporated. Even though Leslie vows to fulfill the expectations of the task handed to her, she soon discovers that Sebastian Harrison's past is darker and more complicated than what she has read and researched about him. Now, Leslie is caught between satisfying the expectations of her job description and helping the mysterious and twisted spirit that Sebastian Harrison possesses. Regardless of what choice she makes, Leslie knows that there is more to Sebastian Harrison than she could have ever prepared herself for.

"NO!!", I screamed at him as he turned and started walking away. "What did you just say?", He said as he turned around slowly as if he didn't just hear me right. "I said no", I spoke defiantly. I've had it. I can't take it anymore, I need to stick up for myself. My face turned to the right suddenly and my cheek stinged. I looked at him in shock with my hand nursing my scorching cheek as tears surfaced to my eyes and fell down my cheeks. He's never put his hands on me and yet he just slapped me. I fell to the ground with a loud thud as I was pushed. I began sobbing as his foot made contact with my stomach. The wind was knocked out of me and just as I caught my breath more kicks were thrown at my stomach. I curled up on the floor as I tried to protect myself while sobbing but it didn't really help. With each kick I heard distant yells. He was yelling at me but I couldn't hear what exactly he was saying. It was like his voice was drowned out by water. He picked me up by my hair and turned my face to look at him. His eyes were black with rage and pure hatred was all over his hard face. I just don't get it, if he hates me so much why not just let me go? Michelle has had enough and she needs to find a way out of the life she was forced into. She wants her freedom and she won't give up until she has it.
