A woman with tragic beginnings finds love and her voice on her way to
stardom...will the spotlight dim her hard-earned shine?
From the day Layani Cherise Bell was born, the world was betting against
her. Born four months premature, the doctors didn't expect her to make
it, but she did. At the age of six, Layani was diagnosed with leukemia.
Again, the doctors gave her a death sentence, but she survived. As if
that weren't enough, at the ripe age of thirteen, she lost mother and
father in a head-on collision with a drunk driver. With no family
willing to step up and care for her, she was put into foster care.
Alone and afraid, Layani befriends and later falls in love with Micah
Jones, another kid forced into the system after tragedy strikes his
family. Not one to cry over spilled milk, Micah passes his time away in
foster care by making beats for local artists and daydreaming about
becoming a super producer. After hearing Layani sing better than some of
the greats, he devotes all his time and energy to making her a star.
With hard work, dedication, and his encouragement, she's destined for
greatness.
After a chance encounter with the charismatic CEO of a major record
label promising to fulfill Layani's wildest dreams, it seems that she
and Micah are well on their way to the top. However, the label has no
room for another producer. Micah convinces his woman to go on to
superstardom without him, and Layani is famous overnight. She has the
world at her fingertips, and everything is perfect until living life in
the spotlight hits her like a ton of bricks. Can she remain grounded
surrounded by lies, drugs, and scandal...or is she willing to lose who
she is to become who she's always wanted to be?
