Female Characters

GWEN WILLIAMS

“I used to want to get out of this town. I felt like it was a deadend and I dreamed of running away to the lights of the big city. But after going to college in one, and getting my heart broken, I came back home. I realize now that I actually love my little hometown. The only problem is the lack of prospects for a relationship. But an unexpected stranger might change all that.”

HELEN

“I’m Gwen’s best friend. We’ve always known each other since we were kids, though we’re nothing alike. She’s more down to earth, I’m kind of- well, I’ve calmed down a lot, but let’s just say as an adolescent I was some trouble! Happily married now and pregnant with our first child.”

ALEXANDRA

“Gwen’s father worked for the oil companies. I was young and dumb, and thought he really loved me, but when the oil dried up, so did he. I’ve raised Gwen all on my own. Though I’m glad she’s come home from the big city, I’m worried that if she stays here she won’t find all the elements of happiness. “
