Sixteen-year-old Laurels world changes instantly when her parents and
brother are killed in a terrible car accident. Behind the wheel is the father of
her bad-boy neighbor, David Kaufman, whose mother is also killed. In the
aftermath of the tragedy, Laurel navigates a new reality in which she and her
best friend grow apart, boys may or may not be approaching her out of pity,
overpowering memories lurk everywhere, and Mr. Kaufman is comatose but still
very much alive. Through it all there is David, who swoops in and out of
Laurels life and to whom she finds herself attracted against her better
judgment. She will forever be connected to him by their mutual lossa connection
that will change them both in unexpected ways.
