The narrative centers on Mallory Maddox, a once-acclaimed novelist struggling with seven years of writer’s block while navigating a restrictive marriage to her husband, Ronan. Her world shifts when she encounters Leo—a fragile, young gay man living on the streets, battling addiction and surviving through sex work for basic sustenance.
