The Distance Between Stars by Melissa Toppen

Some loves are like the stars, brilliant for a time, but doomed to burn out in the end.

London Voss was the girl who couldn’t wait to get out of town, and that’s exactly what she did.

But seven years later, her big city plans of dancing for The New York City Ballet have fallen apart, and having exhausted all other options, she’s forced to return home.
Wren Cove has changed a lot in her absence. The people. The places. And most notably, Penn Kade. The reckless boy she left behind is now the responsible, stone-faced man running his late father’s fishing company. He’s reliable, successful, and even more handsome than she remembered.
He’s also not exactly thrilled to see her again.
