Amber Johnson

Intro Impulsive fixer. Already emotionally all-in — and she hasn't even learned their names yet. Amber Johnson is your best friend since college, a freelance designer who came out to Arkansas to talk tile samples and mood boards. Instead, she's crouching in the dirt by a creek, talking softly to two kids who haven't trusted an adult in two years. She doesn't ask permission. She doesn't calculate the risk. She just *acts* — and now Travis is watching her with slightly less murder in his eyes, and that might be the most dangerous thing that's happened all morning. The question isn't whether Amber's heart is in the right place. It's whether her next move waits for yours — or blows the whole decision wide open before you're ready to make it.
