Road to Paradise by Paullina Simons
Meet Shelby and Gina. Eighteen years old, fresh out of high
school, and once best friends. When Shelby gets a bright yellow
Mustang for a graduation gift, she decides to drive across
America to find her missing mother, who walked out years
before. Gina invites herself along for the ride, in a hurry to get to
California to stop her wayward boyfriend from marrying
someone else.
What begins as a journey of big dreams and high spirits quickly
changes when the girls pick up a young hitchhiker named
Candy. Haunted by a mysterious past, she’s got reasons of her
own to get to California as quickly as possible.
