I Left My Heart in San Diego

Arizona Willows is uprooted from her life in San Diego, California by her mother at the age of seventeen, and is unwillingly dragged eight hours from the big city to the small town of Oakland, California. She's not sure that she can adapt to her new life in the strange new town, but then she meets Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tre Cool, and Arizona starts to think that the once-horrible-seeming move from the big city to a small town wasn't so bad after all...
