"Why is life so hard?" I asked no one in particular.
"Maybe it's because life is harder for some more than others." Phillip says.
"God doesn't give you anything you can't handle." Clarice jumps in. "Don't give us that crap, Clarice!" Brooklyn yells. "God is not real. At least not for me. It's like he hasn't watched over my sister and I since we lost our parents. And that's a shitty life. He gives me things I can't handle. So don't give us that crap." She continues. Maybe it's time to let go.
Taken place over a whole year, with three different characters, "A Year in the Making" shows us how life and love are so precious and in and instant it could all be gone.

Okay, so it was her fault, (at least to a certain extent, according to her) but her dad didn't need to be all rude about it. He especially did not need to threaten her future role as CEO on it too. And, setting up an arranged marriage to fix said 'problem' is so out of proportion. Okay, it wasn't completely out of proportion, but still. Jace Kingston didn't know what he was getting into when he agreed to be married to a 'problematic heiress'. He certainly was not expecting a sexy vixen, who was hellbent on getting on his nerves and destroying the semblance of normalcy he established in his complex life.
