Maya's dad died when she was four, so she was raised by her mother. Unfortunately,  Maya's mother couldn't give her daughter everything. In fact, she could barely give her enough. Life was hard as it got and Maya's heart hardened against who she thought was the cause of all her problems. 
So with all that hatred and anger, she became who she had always wanted to be but why does she feel like it isn't enough? 
Why does there still seem to be this emptiness in her heart? 

In the course of Maya's journey, will she lose sight of what is important or will she find her true self.

He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. ___________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down.
