Marsha Frank

Hold Back the Rain Marsha Frank

Meet Lou Sumner. She is your atypical high school student who dreams of a future she can never obtain. Her best friend, Norm, always denies his true feelings for her. She hates her best friends. She submerges herself in school work and spends her free time working at a record store to avoid her family issues. She becomes drawn to a world where sex, drugs, and rock and roll surround her. She finds a surreal love for Jack Delauge, the lead singer of a well-known L. A. hardcore band. She thinks this love will free her from the chaos that she faces every day. Ultimately she finds faith, and she leaves her past behind, hoping to find a new life.
