Let's start with a fact,
Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE has a place. This place could be anything. It could be physical or phycological. But its there. When someone's at their Place they feel safe, happy and satisfied.
Amelia Parker is a recluse. She's the classic ignored/bullied/removed nerd of high school. But she's got one safe haven besides her house though, a café. A café that has been her Place for four years. But she has one fear. And what happens when the fear comes true? But even worse, what happenes when her fear comes true at her safe haven?
Her whole life changes.

I began writing this book when I was very young and only a couple years later, I had stumbled across this app again and decided to look at what I created. In my spare time, i decided to edit as much as I could and began to write new chapters. Writing was a little hobby of mine, something that I didn't take seriously as I only wrote for fun. I definitely didn't think that my book would get this many readers!! Thank you to all of you who genuinely took time to read my book. I deeply apologise for keeping you all waiting, and left wondering if I was going ahead with this story or not. Sadly, to all of my readers who was looking forward to reading more of my story. I am sorry to say that I will not be working on this book anymore. Perhaps in the later future Heaven and Blake will make an epic return! However, as of now, their love story remains how it is.
