Her more than best friend Kerry—who made it impossible for Nina not to be tough, not to be honest, not to stand by what she knew was right—not to be…Punk.. Twenty-one year old Nina writes lyrics and plays guitar in the rock band, Adam’s Rib, and she doesn’t always play by the rules. But then there was Kerry. In fact, it was damn hard.

A coming of age story, a love story…a brave, brilliant story of strength and seldiscovery. Even her brother Nicky’s girlfriends think she’s hot
