Finding Finn

Finn – When I busted my knee in a stupid skateboarding accident, I knew that my career as a performer was over. Twenty years of ballet, acting, and singing lessons were flushed down the proverbial drain. I left my Broadway dreams behind in NYC and took a job as far away as I could possibly get – California. Honestly, running a community theatre had never been a bucket list item for me. But here I was – and there he was – the technical director. The most frustrating human being on the planet, Jim James. His parents must have hated him. He’s stayed in Foggy Basin his entire life, and this theatre is where he grew up. He doesn’t like my ideas, or me, for that matter. But he’s very nice to watch while he’s building the sets. He’s annoying – but also annoyingly handsome.

Jim – The moment I met him, I knew that there was going to be trouble. He was too pretty and thought he knew more than everyone else. You could tell he thought he was too good for this place – some small-town community theatre was beneath him. He also looked like the doppelganger of my ex, Martin, and that was a problem. The way he moved through a room with the grace of a dancer. The way he sang when he thought he was alone. The way he made my heart skip a beat when he looked at me was driving me crazy. But so was his attitude. I was either gonna kill him or kiss him, and I was having a hard time making up my mind.
