This is the compelling story of Maya, who has yet to defy the expectations of women in society and the weight of her family's fall from grace. In denial about their loss of wealth, pretending is all that is left for her. A gifted sculptor, Maya is haunted by her relentless pursuit of perfection, which overshadows her talent. She finds her life a perfect replica of what she has seen in any televised movie series, a man sees her, falls in love with her, and accepts her. 

Yet, despite her belief that her life is in ruins, Isaac finds a way into her heart, offering her a glimpse of hope that she, indeed, is worthy of being loved. 

But love is unpredictable, it reshapes lives and alters choices. To hold on to the love they've built, one must be willing to sacrifice a dream.

The question remains: is love worth the price of surrendering who you were meant to be?

Living the same routine everyday. Her boyfriend, or now ex boyfriend put her in an empty whole of nothingness. But Sydney was in love. Falling so hard she saw nothing else but him.
