(4) YA Leesie's a Mormon committed to her faith; Michael's a scuba-diving devotee whose parents died in a hurricane. The two fall in love, but their realities--her chastity and his grief--present difficulties. It's easy to lose patience with their turbulent relationship and Leesie's struggles between her lust and purity (worked through in angsty poetry), but Michael's guilt-wracked emotions are palpable and honest.
