Emophilia: a tendency to fall in love too quickly

Falling in love is something that has always been hard for Jesse. You could even say he has never been in love. Always whisked away by the wind he can never stay in one place at one time for too long, his fear of commitment always leaves the same result, her saying she's in love, and Jesse leaving. 

Her entire life, Laura always fell in love too quickly. After the one she loved most left her with more scars than she can bear to carry, she's completely closed herself off, now becoming the one who leaves first, instead of being the girl who always stayed. 

When Jesse and Laura cross paths working together on a ranch, Jesse puts on his charming ways, infatuated by Laura's beauty, but itching to leave her longing for him. What he doesn't expect is for her to leave him first, and play him at his own game. Making it impossible for Jesse to get her out of his head, making her the reason he wants to stay. The roles are quickly reversed as Jesse begins to fall first, Laura's coldness inviting him to stay. Jesse and Laura are soon caught up in a passionate romance, Laura in denial of her feelings toward Jesse, but also unable to deny her habits of running away. That all changes when the pair give themselves over to one another, and a small act results in an ocean of grief. 

As the pair navigate a new world marred by loss, their crossed paths soon become a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the capacity to find beauty amidst the ashes.All Rights Reserved
