The PinUp Coffee Shop

Clary isn't your ordinary 18-year-old girl; she has always held her personal life separate and unknown to the world as much as she could. Working as a waitress at the Pin Up Coffee Shop since she was 16-years-old, Clary learned how to take responsibility and provide for herself. She learned how to be an adult. But what was it that happened to this young girl that made her have to grow up so fast? And how is it, that even though she's had that kind of past, she still manages to be such a kind, strong, loving girl?
For a long time she had walked on a safe side of life; not letting people in and keeping her circle very small and not taking personal risks. So, what happens when a certain long locked, golden, 18-year-old businessman sits in her section and makes her knees quiver and her heart quicken for once in her life? Can Jace accept her heartbreaking past and her unusual, yet oddly familiar life??? Are she and him all that different even though they didn't experience the same things? With the life that she had, and all of her secrets coming to light, will they be accepting of her? What happens when the biggest part of Clary's life is something that impacts Jace's too, whether he likes it or not??? And will Clary let him change her ways and teach her how to gamble again?
And Jace has always been reserved, but what makes this short, beautiful, enchanting redhead so different? Why is she so different than everyone else? And can Jace help her to let go of some of that responsibility and cautiousness and find that little piece of childhood in herself again?
