Overview

Sienna St. Cloud is a Hollywood star who has mastered the art of appearing flawless. Behind the cameras and red carpets, however, she feels disconnected from her real self and exhausted by a life built on expectations.

When she returns to her small hometown of Maplecrest, she reconnects with Sage, a woman from her past who once knew her before fame reshaped everything. As they spend time together, long-buried feelings, unspoken regrets, and forgotten dreams begin to surface.

Confronted with questions about identity, love, and authenticity, Sienna must decide whether she will continue performing the life others expect—or finally listen to her own heart.

This is a slow-burn sapphic romance about self-discovery, emotional honesty, and the courage to embrace love after years of denial.
