Elsie Richmond is a cellist. But not a famous cellist. No, she's more like one of those "starving-artist" kinds of people.
She arrived in Europe five years ago with three hundred dollars in her pocket and her cello on her back. That was when she was sixteen. Now she's twenty-one and losing hope. She wants to play in a Symphony Orchestra - or even better, perform as a soloist. But as she hitchhikes across Europe and scrapes a few coins playing cello on the streets, she begins to think that maybe her dream life is just that.
Only a dream.

Unpredictably Yours by wa02guy
10 parts Ongoing Mature
Predictable. For most, it's a word with negative connotations, a synonym for 'boring'. But predictability is what keeps orchestral violist Randall Lipsky grounded in a chaotic world. From eating the same breakfast every morning to always arriving early for orchestra rehearsal, routine and habit are what he's all about. So it's no surprise that finding love isn't on Randall's to-do list; why bring the unpredictability of romance into his comfortable, orderly life? After all, his parents' miserable marriage has shown him that love is anything but safe. Enter cellist Colette Zhang. She's new to the orchestra, and she's bold, confident, and decidedly unpredictable! She's also exactly what Randall's NOT looking for. So why can't he get her out of his head? And if that's not enough, circumstances beyond their control keep bringing them together. As Randall and Colette develop an unlikely friendship, they find they have more in common than they thought, including a mutual attraction that's getting harder to deny. But before he can take the leap into that gloriously unpredictable thing called love, he'll have to face the hardest question of all: Is he willing to let go of the safety he's always known to embrace the unknown? And what's he willing to risk to keep the love he never saw coming? [NOTE: This is my current work-in-progress. Yes, even after nearly five years, I'm still working on it, because I really want to tell Randall and Colette's story! A lot has gone on in the intervening years (and some big changes have happened), but they're never far from my mind. The outline is completely finished, all that remains is actually writing, which is finally progressing, even if the pace is glacial! I'm bound and determined to see this story through to completion. Everything in due time. 😊]

Follow her story as she has the experience of a lifetime whilst trying to keep herself afloat as she dances through the storm.
