Age: 24 Role: Female lead Occupation: Bartender Vibe: Beautiful, guarded, sarcastic, fiercely independent, and a little dangerous. Avery is the kind of woman people underestimate exactly once. She has dark, messy hair, striking brown eyes, warm olive-toned skin, and tattoos that tell pieces of a story she refuses to explain. She usually dresses in black—hoodies, tank tops, ripped jeans, boots—more comfortable looking intimidating than trying to look pretty. But there’s something effortlessly captivating about her, especially when she isn’t trying. She’s sarcastic, stubborn, loyal, and fiercely protective of the people she loves. Avery doesn't trust easily, and once someone breaks that trust, she doesn't give second chances. She has learned to handle her own problems, pay her own bills, and keep her emotions locked behind a wall of attitude. But underneath all that toughness is a woman who desperately wants to feel safe, chosen, and loved without having to beg for it. Her biggest flaw? She confuses independence with not needing anyone. And then there's him. The man she has spent years hating. The man she swore she would destroy. The man who somehow becomes the one person capable of seeing every broken piece of her. And Avery absolutely hates him for it.
