Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson

After she finds out her dad has three months to live and with a history of running away at bad news, Taylor isn't coping well at the prospect of one last summer together at Lake Phoenix.

Lucy and Henry live next door to their house at Lake Phoenix now. Henry hates Taylor for what happened before between them. Five summers before Lucy's parents filed for divorce and Lucy liked Henry when Henry and Taylor had realised their feelings for each other.

Forced to work at the beach together, Taylor and Lucy slowly rebuild a friendship and work things out between themselves after Taylor opens up about her dad's stage four cancer.

Henry also eventually comes around to Taylor and the pair rekindle their relationship as well despite Taylor's dad deteriorating and Taylor wanting to flee yet again.

Ah this book was one of those you know the end is going to be tragic and it hits you hard! Taylor is such a relatable character with her boy history with friends being hurt and losing a parent will always be hard but the time she spends with her dad is so good with how he keeps going out with her then sharing old memories, leaving her a surprise too a sad but necessary read!
