Synopsis

Crime and Punishment: The Dating Edition

A Romantic Comedy

Sometimes you have to break five hearts to learn how to heal one.

What if you could experience every heartbreak you've ever caused... from the inside?

Jake Morrison thought he had dating figured out. Charm the right woman with the right personality, get what you want, move on before things get complicated. It was a foolproof system until the universe decided to teach him a lesson he'd never forget.

After breaking the hearts of five incredible women in five weeks, Jake wakes up with the impossible: their memories, their pain, and their perspective on exactly what kind of man he really is. Now he has to live through every tear he caused, every hope he crushed, and every moment of trust he betrayed.

From their point of view.

Meet the Women Who Changed Everything:

Emma - The brilliant literature PhD who wrote him poetry and believed she'd found her intellectual soulmate

Ashley - The powerhouse lawyer who finally thought she'd met a man secure enough to handle her success

Sophia - The stunning actress who dared to share her dreams with someone she trusted to see past her beauty

Chloe - The sensitive artist who painted her feelings and had them turned into entertainment

Mia - The elementary school teacher still grieving her mother, who brought him to meet her at the cemetery

But this isn't a story about winning them back.

This is the story of Jake learning to become the kind of man who deserves someone like Rachel. The woman reading self-help books about toxic men when he walks into that bookstore, carrying his newly discovered conscience and a heart full of hard-earned wisdom.

Can a reformed player convince a woman with trust issues that he's finally worth the risk? And more importantly, can he convince himself?
