YAOrca Soundings series.
Ever since causing the crash that killed his best friend, Logan, Tom fears racing; meanwhile, he toils to pay off repairs to his car. Tom also faces losing the vehicle and messing up his relationship with Hannah (who was Logan's girlfriend). The story is slight but accessible; reluctant readers may be drawn to the subject matter and the short, melodramatic sentences.
