BIO:
Growing up Zachariah St. James had everything he could ever wish for. He was surrounded by a warm and loving family, was well liked by his peers, and never wanted for anything. Sure his dad could be strict but Zach knew that they were St. James’ and that meant there was a certain image they were expected to uphold. A reputation to protect. Not only did their family serve on the town council of Cypress Cove, they were a black family in a predominately white town, something Zachariah learned from a young age came with added scrutiny. As the eldest, Zach took it upon himself to take care of his siblings and make sure they knew what was expected of them, often causing some friction particularly between he and his younger brother Zay but Zachariah assured his siblings it was for their own interest. As a result, as they grew older Zach and his younger sister Zoey remained close while Zach and Zay grew further and further apart. His brother was far too lazy and selfish in Zachariah’s opinion, always putting himself and his desires before the family.
School was easy for Zach. He worked hard and got good grades, had a great group of friends, and played both basketball and soccer. From the time he was little Zachariah always knew he wanted to follow in his family’s footsteps. He respected the men that his father and his uncle Gabriel had grown into and hoped that law enforcement would do the same for him. He had planned to join the police force right out of High School but his parents requested he get a college degree first.
Zach settled on Georgia Southern University. It had a great criminal justice program and was close enough that he could still keep tabs on his family or make it home for family gatherings. It was during his senior year that Zachariah met the love of his life. She was in his criminal law class and he was immediately taken with her the moment he saw her walk through the door on the first day of class. As luck would have it they were paired together on a group project and Zach quickly fell for her intelligence in addition to her beauty. Not only was she absolutely stunning, she was the full package, she challenged Zach for what felt like the first time in his life and it wasn’t long before he fell in love.
The pair began dating and spent every moment they could with each other, often wrapped in each other’s arms. They had a beautiful love affair but as Zach’s graduation rapidly approached he came to terms with the fact that they would never last. He had to return home to Cypress Cove and she had a couple years of classes left to take. He hadn’t been home long when she informed him that she was pregnant.
Zach thought this new development would reflect poorly on his family if the word ever got out so he kept the whole thing a secret, only turning to his cousin Adriana for advice. Zach had seen his daughter a few times over the years but mostly stuck to monetary support sending her mother money every month and doing his best to support Olivia from afar. Now that Nicole and Olivia have moved to Cypress Cove Zach is beginning to see just how wrong he was and trying to make up for all the years and memories he missed out on. Maybe the family you make is just as important as the family you were born into. Zach just wishes he had come to that realization sooner.
