Don't Let Me Go
€œAn excellent read.€ €“New Books Review

Former Broadway dancer and current agoraphobic Billy Shine has not set foot outside his apartment in almost a decade. He has glimpsed his neighbors€"beautiful manicurist Rayleen, lonely old Ms. Hinman, bigoted and angry Mr. Lafferty, kind-hearted Felipe, and 9-year-old Grace and her former addict mother Eileen.
But most of them have never seen Billy. Not until Grace begins to sit outside on the building€s front stoop for hours every day, inches from Billy€s patio. Troubled by this change in the natural order, Billy makes it far enough out onto his porch to ask Grace why she doesn€t sit inside where it€s safe. Her answer: €œIf I sit inside, then nobody will know I€m in trouble. And then nobody will help me.€Â
Her answer changes everything.
By the bestselling author of WHEN I FOUND YOU, SECOND HAND HEART, and PAY IT FORWARD, DON€T LET ME GO is the heart-breaking, funny, and life-affirming story of a building full of loners and misfits who come together to help a little girl survive€"and thrive€"against all odds.
€œCatherine Ryan Hyde at her utter best.€ €“ChickLit Reviews
