Getting Over the Rainbow

At twenty-one Danielle Ariano admitted that she was gay. It was the most terrifying and tranquil moment of her life. In the same breath that she acknowledged her sexuality, she swore that she would never tell another soul. Getting Over the Rainbow recounts her journey toward acceptance as she experiences her first kiss with a woman, visits a lesbian beach, learns the peculiarities of gay culture and eventually meets the woman who will become her wife. Ariano’s stories bring to light the unique challenges faced by gays and lesbians, and more importantly, the obstacles that all of us, straight or gay, encounter as we learn to accept ourselves and find love.
