Second Ave Series: Ac-Counting on You (WLW)
Agoraphobic Gwen Murray was scarred in a freak accident in her youth that left her with burns on around twelve percent of her body and many years of ridiculing bullying from not only children, but adults alike. With a history as such, it's no surprise that she isn't very well adjusted to going outdoors. However, as fearful as she is to face the relentless torment once again, she hates feeling as if her life is on permanent standby. All she's ever desired is true happiness -- don't we all -- and with words of encouragement from not only her therapist, but her little brother as well, she is ready to take another step forward. Although, what she hadn't expected was the person who out of nowhere joined her stark journey. Bookstore and cafe owner Michal "Brook" Bluestone was raised mostly in Israel, though her parents desired a full life for her and moved them to join a bulk of their family in the US upon her coming out. Years later, she has two thriving businesses, a giant family only an hours drive away and a network of friends. There's only one thing missing from her life -- love -- and now more than ever, she is ready to find what she deems her "forever girl" with how well life is going. Still, after using dating apps and all encounters failing, she fears love may not be in the cards for her until a skittish woman walks into her cafe, forever changing her world.

But maybe, just maybe, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Praise for Twenty: "That was lovely. Sad that things didn't work out with Ramona, but... Poppy really needed Mikayla, I think. (And vice versa.) I could hear Poppy's voice in my head, and found myself grinning when Poppy spoke in her 'posh voice' to Mrs. Fanshawe. Cheering when Mikayla became a rain-soaked Nemesis with her sword of wood. Getting a little misty when... well, there were so many moments. Thanks for sharing this." author Jalibar62 "Thank you so much for this, I really fell for these two - Poppy broke my heart again and again, but this bit: "Made me realise that when Mikayla hears my voice she isn't thinking of somebody stupid, but of somebody she cares for." Perfect." author SiteNonSiteComplete![How to be Forever Alone [#Wattys2020]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/136724764-256-k610459.jpg)
