Along the Lines (Waiting with You series #1)
After being chased out of their apartment from his father’s debtors, twenty-four-year-old Henry and his eleven-year-old brother Timothy now live secretly in the capital’s public park.
One night, as capital officers decided to conduct their clean sweep of the vicinity, Henry finds that their makeshift home is in danger of being torn down.
Charlie, twenty-two years old, has just started to make a name for herself, away from her family’s influence and most especially from her stepsisters’ unfailing mistreatments throughout her childhood. She stumbles across Henry’s situation and invites them to stay with her until they can get back on their feet.
Upon arriving at her location, Henry discovers that the “place” is actually an apartment complex which houses a variety of individuals, all bonded by the same unique circumstance. At the center of it all was the Clovét Café, an artisan café owned by Charlie and is managed by workers who share the same backstory as Henry’s.
Unbeknownst to everyone is that Charlie has the ability to see a person’s future through touch. An ability which is greatly coveted by the city’s dominant families, and one which Charlie does not dare to reveal in fear of being forced back to her household.
And so, begins the journey of these two people, struggling with their own problems amidst the backdrop of Brevida, a thriving city where parties and glamour are at a constant upswing and where money is everything.
A retelling of the classic Cinderella, but with the gender roles reversed and a slight infusion of modern fantasy. ;)
