Goodreads Summary
Just when Grace is beginning to get used to being an orphan, her estranged uncle suddenly comes forward to claim her. That might have been okay if he'd spoken to her even once since her father died. Or if moving in with Uncle Rusty didn't mean returning to New Harbor.
Grace once spent the best summers of her life in New Harbor. Now the place just reminds her of all she's lost: her best friend, her boyfriend and any memory of the night that changed her forever.
People say the truth will set you free, but Grace isn't sure about that. Once she starts looking for it, the truth about that night is hard to find --- and what happens when her healing hurts the people she cares about the most?

I honestly do not know what I was expecting with this book, but it completely blew me away. When I first started to read The Leading Edge of Now, I went in blind, and don't think I had even looked at the synopsis since I had first requested the eARC to read. So, it took me by surprise how hard hitting, and honest the story was.
After being in the care system for two years following the death of her father, her uncle Rusty is now ready and willing to take her in. Obviously upset, and angry, that it's taken this long, Grace
