Overview

With very little money in her pockets, a young, street smart, starving actress, La 'Akea Roberts, leaves her home in Chicago and sets out to find her fame on Broadway, as a rich girl, Peyton Lee Parker, leaves her gilded-cage life style in North Carolina, in order to get out from beneath her father's rules and money, and heads for New York City. Coincidently, both young women find themselves renting the same apartment in the village. Though rightfully, the apartment is leased to Peyton, she allows La 'Akea to stay until she finds her own place. Unbeknougnst to both, the apartment belongs to a deceased mobster, Johnny Diamond, who happens to still reside there, in spirit. As Peyton, La 'Akea's and Johnny relationship takes shape, they also find themselves intertwined with the other eclectic residence of the apartment complex.
