We Could've Been

Vivienne Leblanc seems to have it all. She is absolutely stunning, smart, and driven to turn her fantastic job as a Music Marketing Director into her true career as a singer. She lives in a gorgeous New Orleans home with her childhood sweetheart and fiancé, Malik McKenna, a Music Producer. Vivienne is living the dream. Or so it seems.

Malik's music-producing career begins to soar with his new rap artist, Lyric. Malik and Lyric work closely together and are always plastered on social media, leaving Vivienne to wonder if there's something more than music between her future husband and his artist. The higher Malik's star rises, the more the idyllic façade Vivienne has created begins to crumble around her.

In the midst of her relationship's growing pains, her fiancé's best friend, up-and-coming singer Caine Guidry, begins to confide in her. Malik and Caine are like brothers, but Caine never embraced Vivienne like a sister. Despite always being in the same circles, sharing a connection with Malik, and working together, Vivienne and Caine were never really friends. He barely talked to her before, so why is he talking to her now?

Their love of music and the pursuit of their dreams unite Vivienne and Caine in a way that neither of them could've ever imagined. As their friendship blossoms and their dynamic changes, Vivienne feels closer to Caine than anyone else in her life, even Malik. There's an awakening inside of Vivienne that brings her desires and a deep sense of longing bubbling up to the surface, unveiling emotions as foreign to her as her newfound friendship with Caine.

Juggling her professional and personal life as they collide, Vivienne doesn't know what she really wants. Does she continue building the life she's begun with the only man she's ever envisioned being with? Does she pursue the dreams that she pushed aside to support Malik's aspirations? Or maybe she wants something or someone else entirely.

As these decisions weigh on her, Vivienne starts to wonder if she has to make a choice. Can Vivienne have her cake and eat it too, or will wanting it all cost her everything?"
