Running To You (Theo James Fan-fiction)
Warning: The reason I rated this PG-13 is because it does have a lot to do with abuse. (I am against abuse 100%) Also this is a Theo James fan-fiction, so enjoy! This story is about a girl who escaped from a terrible situation. She was all alone in the world. Her only friend was an elderly lady who brought her in under her roof and gave her a job, but one day she met a very handsome British man... I guess you'll figure out the rest.Complete

It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•Complete
