stand guy and that he wanted to sleep with her, but Lily didn’t. But later the things turned out
more intense and when Rylee made a move Lily accepted but suddenly the hospital called
Rylee so he had to go.
Then Lily was in her room because she had a break because of her father’s death so she
started to read her old diary when her mom called her and told her that she wanted to move
to Boston to be near her, Lily didn’t like the idea but accepted it.
Six months passed by and Lily was starting to work on opening her own flower store so she
spent all her money for her inheritance by buying a local. Her mother was with her and told
her that she had to make a lot of effort because she had just spent all her money. The place
was a mess full of dust, but Lily saw that it had potential. Suddenly a woman came in and
told her that she wanted to work with her, her name was Allysha, and she was so excited to
work there that she offered to work for free, so Lily accepted to pay her only 10 bucks. They
started cleaning and setting up the place, meanwhile they were putting everything in order
Lily was trying to reach the top of a pile of crates to stack them when suddenly she fell and
injured her ankle, it hurted so bad and she could hardly move it, so Allysha called her
husband and and her brother for help. When they arrived, Lily recognize Allysha’s brother,
he was Rylee, she was shocked, but they act as if they didn’t know each other next to
Allysha and her husband, Marshalls. Then Rylee helped Lily with her ankle and told her that
she needed to rest a few days, meanwhile he was taking care of her, they talked, Lily told
him that she felt attracted to him but as they want different things she asked him to stop
saying seductive things because that made her dizzy, and Rylee told her that he was
attracted and he had thinked about her a lot but he didn't like that so if she wasn’t going to
change her mind about the one night stand thing, then it was better for them to avoid seeing
each other. Then Allysha offered to take care of the business while Lily rested, so they
helped Lily to walk to her car and she left home.

The book starts with part one, then is chapter one and it begins saying “As I sit here with one

7. What did you like about the text? A character? The place's descriptions? The
explanation
I liked that the main character is the narrator so it is like she is telling a story, also I liked
Rylee because I agreed with him when he said that it isn’t such a thing as bad people, we
are only people that sometimes do bad things.
8. What you didn't like? Why?

I didn’t like that Lily’s father treated her mother badly and only arranged things by buying
things and doing nice stuff for her and for Lily.
9.What do you think you have learned and what can you apply in your life?
I have learned that the relationship with family is always difficult and that bad people don’t
exist, we are all just people that sometimes screw up. And I can apply that in my life by
stopping jugging people so quickly.
