Teen Fantasy with Romance submitted by sdunav on June 16, 2014, 8:42pm YA fantasy with some romance, set in two worlds - Cambridge, England, and the Kingdom of Cello. Two teens with family problems communicate via letters between the worlds. Interesting but slow going until the last third of the book. Then I really got into the story and bam! it was done. Library doesn't have sequel yet. :-(
