 Emma is in her late-twenties, stuck in the corporate rut in the young and modern Australian city of Melbourne.

She finds refuge only in the urban alley that brings her to her latte of the day. But something in Emma is about to stir. All hope is not lost. Because when Emma connects with her  barista  - the careful and caring creator of her saving elixir - the warm glow of the cafe promises to spill over and colour Emma s world. If only Emma can allow it to.
