Hey, book bae!
I’m starting the month off with Now Playing: Reel Love featuring Daliah and Maddox.
Hmm… what can I say about these two :)
Their grandparents were best friends and lived next door to each other when they were children. To put it mildly… they couldn’t stand each other, lol, but it was only because they liked each other. Maddox was a bit mean and Daliah was a bit annoying. By their teenaged years, they stopped seeing each other altogether. It isn’t until their grandmothers pass away and leave them with their business that the two are forced back into each other’s lives.
Daliah is a nurturing caregiver by heart. She wants the best for everyone around her, but she often overlooks her own needs and desires. A few people in her life don’t deserve to be there, and even though she’s a great, loyal friend… eventually she will learn the hard way that not everyone is deserving of a place in her life.
When she realizes she’s going to have to deal with Maddox for six months, she’s totally against the idea… but she’s willing to do whatever it takes to keep the movie theater open — even if that means playing nice. Her goal is to show Maddox that Legacy Lakes has a lot to offer… and she does too.
Maddox is selfless to the core. He’s a provider by nature, and the financial weight of his family and girlfriend are both on his shoulders. He’s used to being in GO mode all day every day, but going to Legacy Lakes forces him to slow down. It’s during that time that he begins to realize what’s truly important in life.
When he realizes he’s going to have to deal with Daliah for six months, he’s totally against the idea… and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to sell the theater and return to his normal life — even if that means getting back on Daliah’s bad side. Except, the grown up version of Daliah doesn’t seem to have a bad side — internally or externally. The crush he had on her in childhood seems to resurface… and he’s not the scrawny, scary little boy who was afraid to talk to girls anymore.
