Tati has always been in a relationship with the same guy, no problems, apart from it never feeling quite right. But one trip to a local book store changed everything for her. Being over emotional, while gripping a cup of coffee in a maze of books seems like a strange place to meet a kind soul, one that unintentionally causes a storm of problems in her head. She was always trying to stay out of the drama, keep her head down or in a book, but even her thoughts were something she couldn't escape from. Tati has to decide if this unexpected twist is the worst possible thing or a chance to start again, a chance to live freely. This is her chance to feel real love, the warm and perfect type that she could never read about and truly understand. This is something real, something deep down she knows she longs for.
