Averie Carter, a talented editor at New York Magazine, seems to have it all-beauty, intelligence, and drive. Yet beneath the surface, her heart aches from a painful five-year breakup, leaving her feeling undervalued at work and burdened by financial woes. Seeking a fresh start, she escapes to the serene mountains of Sabah, hoping to find peace on Mount Kinabalu.

But when the global lockdown traps her in a remote lodge instead of on the climb, Averie is stunned to encounter Scott Wallace, the boy who ghosted her before prom, leaving her with unresolved questions. As old wounds resurface and sparks fly, Averie must navigate a whirlwind of humor, heartache, and unexpected romance. In a world turned upside down, could this be her chance for healing-or will the storm within only intensify?

Kayla's life seems perfect on the outside-she's a 23-year-old college student with big dreams, a tight circle of friends, and two protective older brothers. She's always been independent, handling her own business and staying focused on her goals. But when she meets Devin, a smooth-talking guy who seems to have it all together, everything starts to change. At first, Devin is everything Kayla could want-charming, attentive, and always making her feel special. But as their relationship deepens, his true colors begin to show. Devin's charm turns to control, and his love turns into something darker. Trapped in an abusive relationship that no one knows about, Kayla finds herself isolated, scared, and unsure of how to escape. With her best friend Lena starting to notice the changes in her, and her brothers Isaiah and Jordan growing suspicious, Kayla struggles to keep her secret while searching for a way out. But leaving Devin isn't as simple as it seems. The deeper she falls into his manipulation, the harder it becomes to break free. In this short, gripping urban drama, Kayla's strength is tested as she fights to reclaim her life and rediscover her voice. Set against the backdrop of city life, "Behind Closed Doors" is a powerful story about love, control, and survival, written in raw, unfiltered Ebonics that captures the realities of living in the streets. Will Kayla find the courage to escape, or will Devin's hold on her drag her down for good?
