I got this book on 11/25 in Little Free Library #13977 in Cary, NC in exchange for another book. There's a Mr. Mike's Used Books price tag, so a previous reader must have bought it there.
c. 2012 -- 448 pages -- Paperback
Back Cover -- A perfect summer night, a deadly crash -- and four lives are changed forever. A warm June evening, a local tradition: the students of Nantucket High have gathered for a bonfire on the beach. What begins as a graduation-night celebration ends in tragedy after a horrible car crash leaves the driver, Penny Alistair, dead, and her twin brother in a coma. The other passengers -- Penny's boyfriend, Jake, and her friend Demeter -- are physically unhurt, but the emotional damage is overwhelming. Questions linger about what happened before Penny took the wheel.
As summer unfolds, startling truths are revealed about the survivors and their parents-secrets kept, promises broken, hearts betrayed. Elin Hilderbrand explores the power of community, family, and honesty, and proves that even from the ashes or sorrow new love can take flight.

I finished reading this yesterday (7/8/22). This is the first book I've read by this author. It grabbed my attention at the beginning and held it all the way to the end. I didn't want to leave the characters at the end. I wanted to continue living with them on Nantucket in my mind.
