Summary
Sparkle is a young woman whose big dreams seem almost impossible. She's been warned against the pitfalls of the music industry by her protective mother, yet encouraged by the handsome and ambitious Stix. Sparkle forms a trio with her sisters. Together, they perform the soul-stirring songs that Sparkle pens. But as their fame grows, so does the risk of jealousy, self-doubt and insidious temptation.
