Life is like a game of dodgeball. Sometimes it chunks things that you can catch and throw right back at it. Sometimes it throws things you can narrowly miss, feeling the wind from it whoosh against your skin. And sometimes, it throws things at you that you just can't dodge.
"Sixty Seconds" is about Ainsley Vermont's journey while battling a terminal disease. She avoids following Doc's orders because she's convinced she's invincible.
However, she knows what everyone around her will think about her once they know, so she hides it from everyone, trying to shut them all out. At the same time, she wants to keep her life as normal as possible.
It's a little back and forth. She wants to keep people from getting hurt because she knows that they won't believe she isn't going to let this thing take her down, all the while living her life the same as she did before- just in hiding.
She refuses to let the sickness get the best of her. So she keeps pushing people away and ignoring her health declination; the same thing every day, over and over again.
Until she meets him.

Saving Grace
"Dance with me." While I knew it wasn't a demand, it wasn't a question either. I hesitated and he noticed. "Come on Grace, give this gentleman the honor of a dance." "I don't see a gentleman anywhere." He chuckled, stepping closer and tucking his thumbs into his tight jean pockets. He looked like every woman's dream--dark jeans that hugged him sinfully, golden-tanned skin contrasted by his white-fitted shirt, a black, wide-brimmed cowboy hat, and a smile that could send any woman on her knees. Not to mention a voice that coated your skin like silk sheets. I hated how much I noticed. "You're right, but I would like the honor anyway... ma'am." ********************* Meet Grace--living the city life, reserved, eager to please, loyal to a fault. Feeling empty for reasons she's not yet sure of, she's adamant on chasing anything that makes her feel free. Meet Colt--living the country life, private, stubborn, outspoken.

At seventeen, a bone cancer diagnosis stole her rodeo dreams and left her clinging to what she could still hold: her family, her ranch, and the horses that carried her through the darkest days. Now in her early thirties, Maren's settled into the rhythm of ranch life alongside her dad. She doesn't expect much to change. Until Glen Powell, her brother's friend she grew up trailing after, comes back home to Texas. He remembers her as a kid with braids and big belt buckles. She's not that girl anymore. And Glen isn't just the boy who used to tease her, either. He's a movie star with the kind of smile that can undo a girl in a heartbeat, and the kind of man with baggage that Maren swore she'd never take on. What starts as stolen glances and banter under the wide Texas sky begins to stir something neither of them expected. But with Glen's world pulling him back to Hollywood and Maren's roots sunk deep in the ranch, the question lingers: Can saddles and starlight hold them together, or are they destined to ride in different directions?
