Leaving Paradise by Simone Eckles


Though a little unbelievable to me, this book was immensely popular with my female junior students.


Caleb has just been released from prison after serving a year for drunk driving -- and for hitting his neighbor, Maggie. Maggie is returning to school after a long rehab, realizing that she no longer fits in. Their worlds inevitably collide -- with "surprise" consequences.
