This is a love story. It is a funny, romantic, touching, sometimes doleful but always exciting tale of Carolina and Alexander; two college students that fall in love. Their wisecracks and retorts begin immediately upon their unlikely meeting. Affection for each other grabs them quickly and goes deeply into their hearts. Their sailing outing to their secret cove, the sharing of an apartment, the visiting of raunchy hideaways, and even an eventful dog walking experience seals their adoration. They are inseparable; or are they? Carolina is beautiful and lights up a room. Alexander's brother, Daniel, is unusual because of illness and causes whispers upon entering. The nature of the illness forces them to rethink their relationship; to make a series of unimaginable choices.
