Katherine, 22, and Serena, 18, Tennyson are orphans living with their wealthy aunt and uncle. Fed up with living under their thumbs, the sisters are trying to make a life for themselves independent of their family. Now they own Tennyson's Bookshop, a book store specializing in classic and vintage literature. When a figure from their past walks in the door one day, their worlds get turned upside-down. And it gets harder and harder to hide a secret that's been weighing on them for ten years...

Serena stood daydreaming behind the cash register as a few customers browsed the shelves. The day seemed to be passing much to slowly for her liking. Her straight brown hair was pulled into a bun, leaving her bangs to skim the tops of her hazel eyes. She wore a baggy pink sweater that slipped off her wrists and engulfed her hands most of the time, and a long denim skirt. The brown suede boots she wore covered her ankles and went halfway up her shins. virtually no skin below her neck was showing at all. She looked every bit the bookworm, which is what she was. The wire-rimmed glasses she wore slid down and perched on the end of her nose, as she looked down through them to the computer screen. Only three purchases in the last hour. Hopefully business would pick up in the afternoon. After all, it was only ten o'clock.
Kat came strolling casually in a few minutes later. In contrast to her sister's baggy, body-concealing clothes, she wore tight low-rise jeans and a cropped denim jacket that showed off her toned abs and pierced belly button. Her cranberry-colored ankle boots clicked on the floor of the shop as she walked over to the counter. Her thick brown hair was streaked with natural honey highlights, and hung wild and untamed down to the small of her back.
"How's business going?" she asked, leaning her elbows on the counter.
"Fine," replied Serena with a small smile.
"Glad to hear it," Kat said, obviously concerned with other things. "I have a photo shoot tonight, then a gig at Original Sin at eleven. I probably won't be home til about three."
"Thanks for the information. Have fun at your gig." Serena didn't even look up as she heard receding clicks, followed by the door opening and closing again. Kat was gone. She never stayed anywhere for too long at a time.
