It's not just a weekend for Lux Castelo. She has a plan, of course. Phase One: Escape to the beach for a music festival. Phase Two: Deal with what she can't control. Phase Three: Return to reality whole and ready.

But all weekends come to an end and Lux needs to return to the dreaded reality she's running away from. Does being brave enough to leave summer behind mean being brave enough to ask Micah to stay?

About The Book “Looks like Summer, Acts like Rain”. The given name is a metaphorical description of a person. The person has contrasting qualities, displaying something in front of the audience, but their behavior or action is entirely different. For example, some people are very stubborn and rude in public, but once you start talking to them, you will discover that they are very kind, polite, and helpful. As a result, we should not pass judgement on anyone based on their appearance or their actions. It's possible that we're not aware of the situation, and thus we're disconnected from reality.
