She's something of a loner, except for her best friend Juliet. Juliet is the outgoing vivacious one. Olivia is the reserved quiet one of the pair. Olivia starts to notice, and be noticed by, mysterious men. At least they seem like men. When one man in particular, Holden, begins to invade her dreams, she realizes her whole life is changing. Not necessarily for the better. The cliff hanger is like hitting a wall. Excellent book though. Highly recommended.
