THE CASTING CALL:

JOELY MCCULLOUGH
too pretty to ignore – ever; very physical, athletic; sarcastic, but cute about it; can-do; came from dirt and made it with the rich kids; the girl next door who’ll “carelessly cut you and laugh while you’re bleedin’,” angular features, intelligent eyes

ABBEY JONES
Joely’s best friend; fit, great-looking; dead-on comic timing; more than the average guy can handle; good head on her shoulders but grew up with a firm grasp on the silver spoon; never worries about what she has to do to get what she wants; warm, soft features

PARKER MCCULLOUGH
traditionally good-looking; reality show producer; rich and privileged from way back; a passive guy who with a shift of his weight can play the heavy and then some

WES CHILCOTT
dark features; striking; the tattooed, punk-band white knight; lean, finely-cut body and good in a fight; protective, tender, but with a razor-sharp edge

DON CHILCOTT
