Lilian Heather Anderson, 22, spends her summer at Grandma Amarylis's peaceful countryside home. Soft-hearted and gentle, she expects nothing more than quiet days-until she meets Li Yun Ren, a Chinese-American student returning to his hometown for semester break.
Ren carries hidden wounds: distant parents, a business family full of unspoken pressure, and the quiet loneliness of being the only sibling without a partner. His brother and 18-year-old sister have someone beside them-Ren has only his secrets and depression.
But Lilian's warmth breaks through his guarded silence. As they share slow days in the countryside, Ren finds comfort in her kindness, and Lilian sees the aching heart he tries to hide.
Their summer bond grows tender and fragile-leaving them to wonder whether this gentle connection is only temporary... or the beginning of something real.
