Jade's life is a mess and she's trying to pretend it's not.
At 28, she's back in London for her grandfather's funeral, a trip that's supposed to bring closure but only reopens old wounds. After four years in New Zealand, she's broke, jobless, and haunted by the unresolved trauma of a failed eight-year relationship and a writing career that never quite took off. Independent, talented, beautiful, and somewhat confident, Jade should have it all together. But behind the confidence and humour lies a woman in denial, about the depression she's refusing to face, the drinking problem she won't admit, and the smoking habit she can't shake. Reconnecting with old friends feels more like being an outsider than a reunion, and her family-well, they're as dysfunctional as ever. And then there's the tension of navigating old flames, new faces, and a future that seems uncertain.
The truth is, it's hard to move forward when you're still running from the past.
"What is she doing here?"
"Oh Jaden, the way you talk, someone would think you own this entire neighborhood. "
She's quiet,not very social and very
uncomfortable around new people.
But one thing about Marissa Davis, she let's no-one boss her around. It's like she has two versions of herself. Quiet when she needs to be but hell will break loose once you step on her toes. Maybe not so quiet after all.
Jaden, lives in his own world. He thinks his word is the final say. He has gone through a lot in his life but no-one knows that because he thinks no-one deserves to know.He thinks he doesn't need anyone and wants it to remain that way.
Their lives collide.They are too different but the universe seems to be pulling them together.
Are they Better Together?
Well, let's find out.
