Accidentally Yours

SERAPHINA VANCE Age: Mid-twenties Occupation: Corporate Communications Professional Personality: Intelligent, organized, ambitious, determined Seraphina Vance likes having a plan. She prepares before meetings, arrives early, keeps her documents perfectly organized, and rarely leaves anything to chance. She has worked hard to build her career and is determined to prove that she belongs in the corporate world. Behind her calm and professional exterior is a woman who can be surprisingly sarcastic when pushed. Seraphina isn't afraid of hard work, but she doesn't particularly enjoy uncertainty. Unfortunately for her, uncertainty is exactly what is waiting around the corner. Her new position at Vance Group is supposed to be the beginning of the career she has always wanted. She doesn't expect it to become the beginning of something much more complicated. JULIAN VANCE Age: Late twenties Occupation: Executive Director of Strategic Development, Vance Group Personality: Confident, observant, charming, composed. Julian Vance is accustomed to walking into a room and knowing exactly what is happening. As a senior executive at Vance Group, he works across different departments and plays an important role in the company's strategic direction. He is intelligent, confident, and naturally comfortable around people. Julian also has a habit of saying exactly what he thinks. His first encounter with Seraphina is completely accidental. An elevator. A few questions. A woman who clearly doesn't appreciate being questioned by a stranger. Most people would have forgotten the encounter. Julian doesn't. And when their professional paths cross again, he discovers that the woman from the elevator is far more interesting than he expected. AMELIA Occupation: Seraphina's best friend Personality: Cheerful, playful, spontaneous, supportive Amelia is the kind of friend who knows when Seraphina is overthinking something—and isn't afraid to tell her. Where Seraphina plans everything, Amelia prefers to go with the flow. She brings humor and warmth into Seraphina's carefully organized life and is often the first person to challenge her friend's serious approach to everything. She teases Seraphina constantly, but beneath the jokes is someone who genuinely wants to see her succeed. Amelia knows Seraphina better than almost anyone. Which means she is also likely to notice when something—or someone—starts changing her friend's carefully controlled world. REBECCA BENNETT Position: Director of Corporate Communications, Vance Group Personality: Professional, experienced, observant, confident Rebecca Bennett has spent years building her career and knows exactly what she expects from the people who work under her. As Director of Corporate Communications, she oversees an important department within Vance Group and understands the value of clear communication, strategic thinking, and professionalism. During Seraphina's interview, Rebecca quickly notices something about her. Seraphina is prepared. Very prepared. But Rebecca also sees potential beneath the preparation. As Seraphina begins her new career at Vance Group, Rebecca becomes more than the woman who gave her a chance. She becomes an important figure in Seraphina's professional journey.
