I'm Sorry (Watty Nominated 2019)
"I'm sorry for hurting you. I'm sorry for being so emotional all the time. I'm sorry for hurting myself the way i do. I'm sorry for pushing everyone away.

Epitome of Social Outcast. No friends. Just her trusty diary and occasional panic attacks. She is the perfect student, perfect daughter.

And he would make sure he saves her no matter what.Complete
Paint Splattered Chaos and Passion
What do you do when paint splattered chaos breaks down the walls of passion? Amelia is an ambitious but uptight defence attorney who works downtown. She's got a sharp jaw, and an even sharper tongue but she knows when she puts her foot in it. Amelia puts her work first, she doesn't do casual, and she certainly doesn't do messy feelings. She is precision and control, polished to perfection, with cracks she refuses to show, standing tall in her blazer and heels. Amelia hasn't been touched in a way that's made her tremble for years. Riley is a carefree artist, living in the loft above her studio that smells like citrus and wine on the opposite end of town. She's free spirited, symbolic and a little bit sensual and not only with her art. She is chaos, passion and temptation all wrapped up in a satin or silk gown or denim overalls-there's no in between. Riley dreams of all consuming romance, like the true artist she is-even if loss taught her early that love doesn't always stay, and experience has only ever seemed to prove it true. Amelia's law firm is sponsoring a local art show where she somehow gets roped into "supporting the local creatives". When Amelia lays eyes on Riley as she's standing in front of her art piece, describing her work there is a spark of instant electricity. Banter turns into sexual tension that neither of them can deny. The question lies, is the passion enough to dull the chaos and can the chaos become the calm? Because for Amelia, getting close to Riley isn't just risky- it threatens everything she's spent years trying to keep hidden. And Riley? She has a habit of choosing people who don't stay... but something about Amelia makes her want to risk it anyway. So, the question isn't just whether passion can survive the chaos- It's whether Amelia can let herself be seen... and whether Riley can survive it if she does. Or will getting too close cost them more than either of them is willing to lose?
