Ian is a struggling writer wannabe. He studied literature and journalism, but he's far from achieving his dream of publishing a book, and he's starting to wonder if that will ever happen. He barely gets by doing book reviews as an intern at a magazine, so the only way he could afford to move out of his parents' house was to go live with his friend Perry. His love life is a mess, too. He broke up with his four-year-long girlfriend a year ago, and it still weighs heavily on him.

Emma is one of the most easy-going human beings one can meet. She's a free soul, and she wanders through life like a leaf moved by the wind, always with a smile and positive attitude, open to experience what the world has to offer. Even though she was a couple of years younger than Ian and Perry, she played in a band with them while they were in high school, and they have been friends ever since. She's always moving and making new friends, so it can be hard to see her sometimes, much to Perry's discontent.

Though young, Holly is quite a successful writer. For as long as she can remember, she was the kind of girl who enjoyed living between the pages of a book rather than going to parties and doing all that extroverted stuff. Her books are now gaining quite a following, so she combines her job as a professional writer with an internship to finally earn her college degree. Despite her devoted fan base, she still can't believe her books are appreciated and she often acts insecurely around other people, feeling afraid of leaving her shell.

Wade has been friends with Ian and Perry since high school and played in a band together with them. He has never had any trouble with the ladies since his good looks always made him stand out, especially compared to his friends. He always had a few girls to hook up with until he began dating Cindy. Since he never had to really make an effort and he has an incredibly beautiful girlfriend already, he's gotten even more complacent these last few years. Seems all he's interested in is playing video games, drinking beer, and enjoying a simple life. Maybe that's why he and Perry get along really well.
