I Want Candy


Tiana Laveen - 2012

Longing for a happily-ever-after, Candy attracts numerous men only to have her fairytale ending crash and burn time and time again. As each relationship begins and ends, her weight yo-yos up and down, reflecting her own struggle with affairs of the heart and the effects of repeated emotional roller coasters. A semi-workaholic for a large Fortune 500 company as Director of Finance, Candy puts in long hours with her supervisor, Gabriel Justice. Gabriel is an attractive, powerful, and candid man with a surprising outlook on life. His unconventional personality, generosity, and sexiness are the talk of the office and even the media. However, Candy’s sweetness is his weakness. Over time, Candy and Gabriel’s work relationship evolves into something much more, but looming overhead are Candy’s suspicions, her past, and self-sabotage which interfere in ways that neither of them dreamed imaginable. Soon an office romance becomes the least of their problems thanks to an ex who will stop at nothing to destroy everything Candy holds dear. With their careers and relationship at stake, will they be able to conquer these obstacles in pursuit of a delicious and full life?
