Sixteen-year-old Aoife Banes has spent the last three years hidden away from the world.
Homeschooled after anxiety slowly turned classrooms into battlefields, Aoife has grown used to silence, safety, and staying unnoticed. But when she's forced to attend Redwood College - an elite private school tucked away in the Irish countryside - she's thrown into a world of crowded hallways, whispered gossip, rugby matches, and people who seem far too confident for her quiet heart.
Especially Declan Thompson.
Redwood's rugby captain is everything Aoife tries to avoid: popular, confident, devastatingly handsome, and impossible to ignore. With piercing blue eyes, a sharp tongue, and a reputation that follows him everywhere, Declan should be the last person to notice the shy brunette with trembling hands and guarded green eyes.
But he does.
And once he notices her, he can't seem to stop.
What begins as accidental collisions and quiet conversations slowly turns into something deeper - stolen moments in rainy hallways, walks along the river, late-night confessions, and a love that feels both terrifying and safe all at once.
But falling in love isn't easy when anxiety still lingers in the shadows, bullies threaten to tear down the fragile confidence Aoife is beginning to build, and both of them are learning what it truly means to let someone see every broken piece of you.
Set in mid-2000s Ireland and filled with aching first love, found family, soft romance, humour, friendship, and emotional healing, Like Rainfall is a heartfelt coming-of-age story about being brave enough to be seen - and finding the person who makes the world feel a little less frightening.
