Summary

"After her sister runs away, teenager Hope Cassidy rebels against her conservative family by starting a rock band with her former crush, Danny, who is kicked out of his house when he comes out to his family"--

Growing up in a conservative Christian household, Hope Cassidy spent her whole life being told that the devil speaks through Led Zeppelin. Her sister, Faith, can't be honest about dating the record shop cashier, Mavis. When their youngest sister outs Faith to their parents, there is nowhere for Faith to go but the Change Through Grace conversion center... or running away. Needing to rebel, Hope gets a tattoo and tries singing through the hurt. When her long-time crush Danny comes out and is subsequently kicked out of his house, Hope can't just stand by. Now living in Faith's room, Danny and Hope strike up a friendship... and a band. And their music might be the answer to dethroning Alt-Rite, Danny's twin brother's new hate-fueled band.-- adapted from jacket
