A Walk in the Rain Leah Michaels

Daniella,a young Catholic girl struggling with life and all of its many disappointments, is growing up in the mid-1980s, becoming apart of the new wave, punk rock scene. In the midst of typical teenage angst and rebellion, she meets and falls in love with Conner McGrath, whose defiant behavior eventually leads to his incarceration and sends Daniella on her own path of self destruction. From his lonely prison cell, Conner reunites with Daniella through his poignant and heartbreaking letters, opening Daniella's heart and mind and inspiring her to fight for the man she loves. This is a story about one woman's incredible journey through the justice system and back, which is motivated by a love that releases Daniella from the shackles of the past and which points her on her own path of self-discovery and freedom.
