Elisabeth grew up in a household that didn't care about her. She didn't go to school, she didn't have an education except for what she learned on the internet. She taught herself how to read and write and she could browse the web for hours and learn new things, but to the world she wasn't a real person. In fact she never left the tiny 4 walls of her room except to go to the bathroom.  She didn't know what love was, nor did she know what it was like to have human interaction besides what she got from her parents. 

Until she joined an international penpal website and her world changed. She started getting messages and talking to people from all over the world. Then he started messaging her and her whole world got flipped. She wasn't who she thought she was. 

But who is this guy? And how does he know the secrets she's yet to uncover? The better question is yet to come.
