Reveal the reviewThis series had an intriguing premise and a strong cast—exactly what I needed for a feel-good comedy! Let’s dive in. 👇
🌟 Tessa: The Underdog Heroine
Tessa is a hard-working woman who’s been taken for granted by everyone around her. But when she receives a life-altering diagnosis, she decides enough is enough. She dumps her cheating boyfriend, exposes her shady supervisor, and finally starts living life on her own terms. 🙌
Her bucket list is sweet and modest—like “drink coffee in Beverly Hills.” Nothing wild… except she catches the eye of a billionaire, so suddenly even the extravagant stuff doesn’t feel that far-fetched! 💅
💸 Cassian: The Billionaire with Vibes
Cassian is your classic billionaire heartthrob—charming, confident, a bit clueless. Who invites someone with a deadly diagnosis on a date to a cemetery? 😳 That’s one for the books. But despite his odd ideas and clumsy moves, his love for Tessa is obvious. The way he looks at her? Swoon. 😍
Sure, he’s honest about his feelings, but someone really needs to help this man manage his jealousy!
Side note: The scene where he tosses her clothes and she instantly changes outfits? Loved that fun visual trick! 👗✨
🩺 Dr. Elliott: The Loyal Best Friend
Tessa’s childhood friend and a brilliant doctor, Elliott is the calm, logical presence in her life. You can feel Cassian’s jealousy from the start—but Elliott? He’s focused on saving her, not stealing her. While it doesn’t look like he is in love with her, his loyalty and support make him the ultimate green flag. 💚
That little rivalry between Cassian and Elliott was fun (and a bit over-the-top). Like when Tessa fainted—Elliott was literally trying to save her life while Cassian was worried about who was touching her. 😅
Also, that restaurant scene? I was low-key rooting for Elliott to say “yes” too—just for the drama! 😂
🐍 The Meanies
Let’s talk about Debbie. She’s your classic jealous cousin turned gold-digger. She stole Tessa’s boyfriend (not a huge loss), tried to take Cassian (he wasn’t having it), and aimed for his fortune—but got nothing in the end. And karma really hit when she got Tessa’s diagnosis instead. Yikes.
Then there’s Bianca—whose entrance deserves a crown. 👑 “I heard you’re looking for an heir? I’m ovulating right now.” UM. Okay?! Iconic and unhinged. She didn’t last long, but that intro is legendary.
And of course: Teddy and Chloe. More comic relief than real threats. Teddy wanted the family empire so badly, he probably would’ve buried his grandma alive for it. Too bad no one thought he had what it takes to be CEO. 😂
💬 Final Thoughts
This series was genuinely funny and gave me all the good vibes I was hoping for. Seeing Chris again was a delight—he’s always the green flag boyfriend, but I’d love to see him play a villain for once! Jesse was perfect as Tessa, and Robyn playing the mean girl? Always a win. 💯
If you’re looking for a light, feel-good Vert with humor, romance, and just the right dose of drama—this is the one for you!
