Sylvain Toussaint and Cecilia "Cilia" Nguyen have been best friends for years. Growing up in the mostly white West Side of Brockton, Massachusetts, their respective clans were the only recent immigrant families on the block. Haitian-Americans and Vietnamese-Americans, living peacefully side by side. At least until their lives took drastically different turns. After high school Cecilia went to Massasoit Community College, and Sylvain went to the University of Virginia. Years later they reunite in Brockton, Massachusetts, and sparks fly between them. Can best friends find true love with each other ? Or are they carelessly messing up a lifelong friendship ?
