This collection reveals lost dreams and hope renewed. From houses of worship, across the corners of the adult industry, through the eclectic nightlife, the lives of those who populate the area bring forth a new view of paradise.Rick, a failed rock star, is stuck headlining a house band at a tourist resort in the keys trying to reinvigorate his life through a lifelong love of music and his new love.

As Susan, a single mom stripper finds a place of happiness in the church where she signs her daughter up for school, her co-worker Betty slips into a relationship of addictive co-dependency with their manager Aaron.
