Charlotte Aston never thought she would find the sudden courage to slip into a booth across from a complete stranger and introduce herself.

It wasn't until the pretty waitress decided that Lee needed to try the cafe's top tea, that things started to head in an unthinkable place for the both of them. It soon became that tea with Lee was not only solving a broken boy's heart, but finally opening up a girl's heart for once, too.
