Amanda is an attractive, hard-working, ambitious, career-driven woman whose put herself in the position to live a comfy life. She works a remote gig at a corporate job. But she’s devastatingly alone. She has family and a few friends but hardly sees them. She was once married but broke that off and her ex still lingers in her mind. Some scenes involve implied intimacy (e.g., self-care routines); all boundaries will be discussed and agreed upon in writing beforehand.
