The Miles Between by Mary Pearson


Destiny wants one fair day, so when she discovers a convertible car apparently abandoned and just waiting for her, she enlists 3 classmates from boarding school to go on a roadtrip to a nearby town. Cute Seth, flaky Mira and serious Aiden join her, and as Destiny slowly begins to admit that her parents did not abandon her by choice and that sometimes things cannot be controlled no matter how much she tries, she faces the truth behind their death and her denial and discovers that Seth, Mira and Aiden aren't defined only by their most obvious characteristics, either.
