CHARACTER BIO
Bryce Varley is on the verge of making a life-threatening choice. He's dedicated his life to the pursuit of becoming a doctor. Upon receiving his M.D. he procured an Internship with Olivia Benford's supervision. The hours are hell, which makes it impossible for Bryce to have any outside pursuits or even love interests, which is hard for a man in his twenties. Without these outlets, Bryce's sharp mind can sometimes go to very dark places.
