Morgan grew up poor, and now she's living a dream life. She's cohabitating with billionaire Sebastian Reid, which gives her the time and space to make her art--quilts. She's a fashion school grad who slept on her FIT friend's couch before she started dating Sebastian. Sadly, her bubble bursts when she realizes that Sebastian's fortune is the planet's famine. And of course, there's another man. 

Morgan's political awakening is sudden, but the fervor of a new convert puts her in the perfect position for corporate espionage. 

"Fossil fuels are basically finished. We didn't convert to green energy when we should have. I'm sick of steering a sinking ship with everyone hating me."

"The climate crisis isn't a popularity contest, Mr. Reid." Figueroa said, sitting down. "People are fucking dying."

"Counselor!" the judge said.
