Alexander Woodroe has it all. He has the looks, the charm, wealth, and fame. As a leading star in the hit show Gods of the Gates, he's not exactly being treated all that great. His character arc is being destroyed, he's dodging his old demons, and his post-show future still remains to be determined. Meet Lauren Clegg, a former ER therapist who needs a desperate vacation and time to relax. When her cousin pulls her in to essentially babysit Alex, she doesn't think it'll be too hard. Yet one scandal after another it proves to be challenging. Alex is determined to keep Lauren around because he really wants her. He's willing to show Lauren exactly what it means for a man to want a woman. 

Alex gave me the absolute best vibes and I loved the different layers of his character. Lauren is such a nice compliment to Alex's personality. I really enjoyed how Lauren was able to highlight through her character story how being fat does not have to equal being silent/invisible. I loved the growth from her as a character and found her extremely relatable and practical. I also really enjoyed how Lauren took an aspect of Alex that most find 'rude' or 'annoying' and flipped it so that Alex could find his strength in that.
