Sasha Klein couldn’t be less happy to be living in Castleton, Maine. If only her sister hadn’t fallen in love with a Castleton guy who got her pregnant and then bailed on her and her little girl for Las Vegas. Sasha plans to get out of the tiny town just as soon as her sister is back on her feet. Looking for any kind of excitement, Sasha escapes Castleton and ends up at a lesbian bar, where she spills a drink on, almost gets in a fight with, and then kisses a gorgeous mystery woman. Then she sees that woman the following week at her niece’s parent-teacher conference. Awkward.

She easily connects with people and loves her big, boisterous Persian family, despite their tendency to meddle in her life. When Laleh needs to be rushed to the ER with heart trouble, Hope saves her life. Afterwards, strange things begin to occur.
