Honor: a novella

Honor Ellis is a bookworm, to say the least. She adores good fictional characters and the lives they live. Her life, on the other hand, was not very exciting; it consisted of staying up late and reading alone in her apartment, then paying for it later by oversleeping and running into work late. She had no social life to speak of, and thought she was content simply living vicariously through the characters in whatever book she might be reading at the moment.

It isn’t until one day, while at work, she realizes that maybe she wasn't as happy as she once thought; that day was the day she met a handsome stranger named Osric. She was drawn to this mysterious man, and had never opened up to someone like she did with him. She finds herself doing things totally out of character, and finally finds herself truly living. It is as if she found her happily ever after.

That was until Osric shares something with her that he had never told anyone before. Honor is faced with a tough decision. Will she get her happy ending after all? Or will Osric’s secret tear them apart?
