CHAPTER ONE: THE GROOVE ACE

Loneliness is a tragic and essential part of life that everyone on Earth has experienced at least at one point in their lives. Whether they want to admit to it or show it, they have.

Harmony is almost as typical as teenager gets, with raging obsessions over hugely popular boy-bands such as One Direction and her own dance career. She also has her not-so-typical side, her passion for super-geeky shows like Doctor Who and Merlin. Never mind her appearance. Her profile oozes normality, yet a special someone senses more to her...
