Brunette Intruder

Tess Thompson: Not a damsel in distress.
Adam Thwaites: Doesn't need saving...

Drowned in debt after her parents passed away, Tess tries a couple of ways to find herself a place to stay until her house is sold. One of which is by joining a sorority house. But that leaves her blacked out by the beach in a party hosted by Adam Thwaites who ends up giving her a place to stay. He lends her an unwilling hand that she helplessly takes. They count on the days to part with each other when Tess feels like she's a charity to Adam and Adam feels like he's a pitiful man who needs saving.
