Plot Summary

Anna De La Vega is an American student travelling to study Victorian poetry for a year at the University of Oxford. On her first day, she gets splashed by Jamie Davenport in his vintage Jaguar sports car. Later, she finds out he will be teaching one of her classes. They both mock each other initially, but spend a fun night together which involves Anna’s first time in a pub. However, Jamie seemingly rejects her at the end of the night which leads to Anna deciding to make him jealous by dancing with another man.

The next day Jamie shows Anna a special book, and they reconcile. Then, they are intimate, with both agreeing to keep things fun. Anna talks to Cecilia, a close friend of Jamie, who warns her away. Over the months, they become closer and finally Jamie invites Anna to his place. Jamie reveals that his brother Eddie died, and he and his father no longer talk. In the morning, he appears distant. Anna attends the Oxford vs Cambridge boat race in London with her friends, but she has not seen Jamie for a week supposedly due to his studying. However, she finds out that he has not been at the library in weeks, and that Cecilia has also been busy for a week.

Anna angrily goes to Jamie’s place to confront him and finds Cecilia and Jamie, who is receiving medical treatment. He shouts at her to get out. Later, Jamie reveals the truth to Anna. Celia had been Eddie’s girlfriend and he had died of an aggressive, genetic cancer, which is now afflicting Jamie. What Anna saw was his last treatment, as he refuses to do any more due to the pain, which is why his father is angry. Jamie insists Anna not waste her time on him, but she references one of their first conversations, saying he should not suffer alone.
