Watch out world, Artemis Owusu is entering her villain era...

Artemis 'Temz' Owusu has bags of confidence and plenty of opportunity for hook-ups; she fiercely embraces her beautiful size 26 body and expects any man to do the same. Her marketing career is on fire, and she has a thriving side-hustle as a 'plantfluencer'.

But for some reason, her romantic relationships just won't stick.

So, when sexy California-based tech entrepreneur Ruben slides into her DMs looking for plant care advice, Temz doesn't waste an opportunity. Soon their long-distance digital flirtation is growing roots - until, in an out-of-character bout of self-doubt, Temz commits the cardinal online sin...

Suddenly she's embroiled in a web of deception as her relationship with Ruben gets increasingly serious. When her job lands her the opportunity to visit her man's stomping ground in Oakland, could it be a chance for her to finally come clean - or it could lead to total chaos?

For fans of Bolu Babalola, Bethany Rutter and Candice Carty-Williams, Chaotic Energy is a romcom with a difference.
