The Day it Rained Forever

The Day it Rained Forever, by Lynette Greenfield

The Day it Rained Forever is a fictional drama novel that, while written beautifully, may also make you feel uncomfortable. Alia Cannes, a psychologist who lives an everyday, simple, working-class life, finds herself in a terrifying situation late one evening when she agrees to accompany a man at a bar to his hotel room. Suddenly, her night becomes a living nightmare, and Alia is unexpectedly gang-raped. But Alia is strong and knows that she must move forward to survive, but how?

The Day it Rained Forever is a story of the compassionate, loving guidance of Erik, a mysterious stranger who enters her life and changes her world, reviving her trust in humanity. Erik manages to fully reach into Alia's darkness and offer hope, helping her search for a life free from the memory of her past and the emotional turmoil of the violence she endured. But as with all Lynette Greenfield's stories, NOTHING IS WHAT IT APPEARS TO BE! There is much more to Erik than meets the eye. The book aims to help survivors find the courage to speak out and reach those who have or are suffering to let them know that healing is possible.
