{{DEFAULTSORT:Harlow, Riley}}
'''Riley Harlow''' is a pre-made playable [[adult]] [[sim]] from [[Four Corners]], one of the [[neighborhood]]s shipped with ''[[The Sims Life Stories]]''. She is the protagonist of [[Riley's story]]. Having lost her job and facing eviction from her house in [[SimCity]], Riley arrived in the town of Four Corners to stay with her aunt [[Sharon Foss]]. Details of her early life before moving to Four Corners are largely left up to the player's imagination, but she does mention that she was both president of the chess club and captain of the football team at her high school. She also describes herself as a "certified ninja" at one point, a qualification that seems to be taken seriously, at least by Riley herself.
 
Riley mentions having eaten at a burger bar in [[Pleasantview]] on her way to Four Corners, suggesting that the game takes place in the same universe as ''[[The Sims 2]]'' and that the two neighborhoods are fairly close together. This would make sense, as Riley is stated to have just moved to Four Corners from [[SimCity]], and Pleasantview is believed to be a suburb of the city, meaning that she may well have had to pass through Pleasantview en route.
 
Riley also appears in the [[family bin]] of the [[Four Corners (Free Play)|Free Play]] version of the neighborhood. Even though she has brown hair, Riley's SimDNA in [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]] confirms her natural hair color is blonde in the Story Mode version, while in the Free Play version her natural hair color is brown. She also has tweased eyebrows and eyeliner in the Story Mode version, but combed eyebrows and light eyeliner in the Free Play version of the neighborhood.
Riley Harlow is the main character in [[The Sims: Life Stories]]. She came to the town of Four Corners and arranged to stay with her [[Aunt Sharon Foss]] after she had lost her job. After Aunt Sharon leaves suddenly on a business trip, Riley is welcomed by [[Mickey Smith]], [[Fiona Fortuna]], and [[Agora Tchotchke]]. The next day, she invites Mickey over, not knowing he will bring Agora with him.
 
When Riley is directed to look for a job on the computer, only the [[Entertainment]] [[career]] will be available, no matter how many times she is directed to look again. A similar thing happens with [[Tank Grunt]] in ''The Sims 2'', who can only access the [[Military]] career when the [[Grunt family]] is first played.
Riley tries to flirt with Mickey, and Agora gets angry at her. She storms off in a huff, leaving Mickey at Riley's house. Mickey calls Riley the next day and asks her if she wants to go to the Starlight Cafe and Market, where they share their first kiss, and become boyfriend and girlfriend. Later, Fiona calls Riley saying that her ex-boyfriend from high school, [[Dylan Kincaid]], moved into Four Corners a few weeks before she did. He calls Riley, and invites himself over to her house for dinner. They fall in love again, and Riley is conflicted about her feelings for Dylan and her relationship with Mickey. Riley invites Mickey to the gym, not knowing they will meet Dylan there. Mickey finds out Riley was dating Dylan, and dumps her on the spot.
 
When Riley's household is first played, she will be 29 days away from becoming an [[elder]]. She has the [[Fortune]] [[aspiration]] and the [[Aries]] [[zodiac sign]]. Her [[interest]]s in the Free Play version of the neighborhood are different from the ones she has in the Story Mode version.
Dylan later goes to Riley's house to comfort her. Feeling particularly down, Riley decides to go to the boutique. She invites Dylan, but he makes the excuse that he has to work. So she then goes alone, and sees Dylan there on a date with [[Ashley Sinclair]]. After attacking him, he dumps her, and Riley discovers Dylan dropped his wallet during the fight. She takes the money, and spends it on clothes, but goes home when she sees Mickey with Agora, since the two of them are engaged now. Riley then decides to make up with Mickey, but when they finally do, he has to go and marry Agora.
 
<blockquote class="note">Sometimes I feel like a total basket case. Like, what am I doing with my life? I've always wanted a great job, a great boyfriend—and now I have it all, sort of. So how come I'm doubting every decision I make? OMG, I'm only 23. I just need to have some FUN! — Riley's biography in [http://www.thesimsstories.co.uk/riley/index.asp The Sims Stories site]</blockquote>
Riley is devastated, and things only get worse when Dylan shows up yelling at her for wrecking everything. Aunt Sharon shows up with the police, and Dylan is arrested for kidnapping Sharon and holding her hostage in his basement. Riley finds out Agora was involved too, and goes to Old Grove Gardens to stop the wedding between Mickey and Agora. When she gets there, she tells Mickey everything, and Mickey leaves Agora at the altar.
 
==Story==
Agora is furious at Riley, and gets in a fight with her. Riley wins, and Agora is arrested. Mickey asks Riley to marry him on the spot, and they go on their honeymoon to the Simaican Isles, a play on the Jamaican Isles. When they get back, Sharon announces to them that she is giving them the house, and leaves on a date with a guy she met over the internet. Riley then becomes pregnant, and she and Mickey throw a house party to commemorate the occasion. Riley then has the baby during the party, and this is where the storyline ends.
{{Main|Riley's story}}
After Aunt Sharon suddenly left on a business trip, Riley was welcomed by [[Mickey Smith]], [[Fiona Fortuna]], and [[Agora Tchotchke]]. The next day, she invited Mickey over, not knowing he would bring Agora with him. Riley tried to flirt with Mickey, and Agora got angry with her. She stormed off in a huff, leaving Mickey at Riley's house. Mickey called Riley the next day and asked her if she wanted to go to [[List of Four Corners lots#Starlight Cafe and Market|Starlight Cafe and Market]], where they shared their first kiss, and became boyfriend and girlfriend. Later, Fiona called Riley saying that her ex-boyfriend from high school, [[Dylan Kincaid]], moved into Four Corners a few weeks before she did. He called Riley, and invited himself over to her house for dinner. They fell in love again, and Riley was conflicted about her feelings for Dylan and her [[relationship]] with Mickey. Riley invited Mickey to [[List of Four Corners lots#Lead's Gym|Lead's Gym]], not knowing they would meet Dylan there. Mickey thought Riley was dating Dylan, and dumped her on the spot.
 
Dylan later went to Riley's house to comfort her. Feeling particularly down, Riley decided to go to [[List of Four Corners lots#The Corner Boutique|The Corner Boutique]]. She invited Dylan, but he made the excuse that he had to work. So she then went alone, and saw Dylan there on a date with [[Ashley Sinclair]]. After attacking him, he dumped her, and Riley discovered Dylan dropped his wallet during the fight. She took the money, and spent it on clothes, but went home when she saw Mickey with Agora, since the two of them were engaged now. Riley then decided to make up with Mickey, but when they finally do, he had to go and [[marriage|marry]] Agora.
But it's not over yet! Riley, Mickey, and their baby are now available in the neighborhood view as a playable family.
 
Riley was devastated, and things only got worse when Dylan showed up yelling at her for wrecking everything. Aunt Sharon showed up with the police, and Dylan was arrested for kidnapping Sharon and holding her hostage in his basement. Riley found out Agora was involved too, and went to [[List of Four Corners lots#Old Grove Gardens|Old Grove Gardens]] to stop the wedding between Mickey and Agora.

[[Category: Life Stories]]
 
Agora was [[fury|furious]] with Riley, and got in a fight with her. Riley won, and Agora was arrested. Mickey asked Riley to marry her on the spot, and they went on their honeymoon to the Simaican Isles, a play on the Jamaican Isles. When they got back, Sharon announced to them that she was giving them the house, and left on a date with a guy she met over the internet. Riley then became pregnant, and she and Mickey threw a house party to commemorate the occasion. Riley then has the baby(s), and this is where the story ends.
 
After the story, Riley, Mickey, and their baby(s) become a playable family living in [[List_of_Four_Corners_lots#10_Hyacinth_Circle|10 Hyacinth Circle]].
 
==Connection to Vincent's story==
The TV show that [[Vincent Moore|Vincent]] and [[Naomi Hunt|Naomi]] watch in [[Vincent's story]], entitled ''For Love or Simoleons'', is obviously based on Riley's story. (After the episode ends, Naomi comments that she "can't believe her ex-boyfriend kidnapped her aunt!", as well as referencing several other plot points from Riley's chapters.) This could mean that Riley's story is a television show within Vincent's story. However, since Riley is shown pursuing the Entertainment career, it's possible that the two stories take place in the same universe, and that Riley makes a TV show based on her life after her story has ended. This would mean that Vincent's story takes place sometime after Riley's has ended, which is the order of play encouraged by the game.
