Calamity of a Choice

An small-town romantic comedy about a single man seeking a chance at love and finding a spark when he least expected it. When a blind date between two college students gets thwarted by their competitive nature, it sends one man's heart into romantic chaos. As a reliably unreliable partner, Chris has never believed in himself, and certainly not after his difficult breakup with his life-long girlfriend. His best friend, on the other hand, is relentlessly determined to throw him back into the dating pool, even if it means embarrassing him in front of a bar full of people. But there's just one problem—the only remarkable thing about Chris is his talent for ruining every romantic relationship he's ever had. Cue Yasmin, a young artist with a prickly personality and the incessant need to be praised. She's a master at hiding her flaws in wit and denial, and it works on everyone except Chris. After their meet-cute goes wrong, the pair find themselves back at Yasmin's apartment amongst an indecisive mess of vulnerability and bad life choices, leading Chris to believe that the cute hothead may not be so unbearable after all. With their chemistry melting the ice between them, there's no way either of them could screw this up… right? Dimitri Rogers delivers fantastically flawed characters that will leave you wondering: What is your Calamity of a Choice?
