Liane "Lilac" Arnoult is in a guesthouse anticipating a visit from her father during a 2-week stay. She went outside and it wasn't until her brother, Curtis, bumped her forward that she met the cute pool boy Apollo Adderly, or as Liane likes to calls him, sun-god. Lilac is very frank & straight forward knowing what Apollo is probably thinking. There's something behind this bubbly girl that's keeping her down, though.Apollo Adderly knows never to mingle with the people from the guesthouse, but he does knowing Liane only will be here for 2 weeks. He's attracted to her because of her frank/honest attitude, but his heart is guarded and he likes to be comfortable. But why? What happened to Apollo before Lilac?Both Apollo & Lilac have a problem and it seems that only fate brought them together to help each other fix their troubles. Lilac and her frank attitude helped bring Apollo out of his shell while Apollo helped Lilac find the way to forgive. Liane has 2 names for 2 different girls. Lilac is the straight--forward girl who will say anything on her mind and has no worries (this name given by Apollo). Liane however is the girl hurt by what happened to her/her family and can't seem to forgive nor forget it.The supporting characters, Stefan, Melissa, Christine, Curtis, and Lilac's parents, Clyde & Lydia, were good for the story. I appreciated, once again, Suzanne mentioning saving sex for marriage (no the book is not religious).The ending however was special. It wasn't your dramatic ending (like I wanted) but perfect for this story.Overall, a perfect story with twists & turns but mainly love all around.
