Nora, Nora by Anne Rivers Siddons

Peyton is not ready to share her widowed father with anyone, let alone a barely remembered cousin who just rolled into town, a cousin who smokes cigarettes and drives a pink Thunderbird. However, her father seems to like Nora well enough, and that prim Aunt Augusta hates her, so maybe she isn't so bad - maybe Nora is just what quiet Lytton, Georgia, needs this summer. But it soon becomes clear that something is troubling Nora deeply. Peyton believes that whatever it is, it must be more than the snide comments made by neighbours who don't like her 'unsouthern' ways. It has to be something from her past that's bothering her, something she is running away from. And when the shocking truth comes to light, it teaches Peyton that enormous cost of loving - and the necessity of doing it anyway....
