  <default_description>Destiny Faraday makes a point of keeping her distance from her classmates at Hedgebrook Academy. Her number-one rule: Don&#8217;t get attached. But one day, unexpectedly finding a car at their disposal, Destiny and three of her classmates embark on an unauthorized road trip. 

They&#8217;re searching for one fair day&#8212;a day where the good guy wins and everything adds up to something just and right. Their destination: Langdon, a town that Destiny&#8217;s unsuspecting companions hope will hold simply a day of fun. But, as Destiny says, &#8220;Things are not always what they seem.&#8221; Only she knows that Langdon holds far more than that&#8212;a deep secret she has never shared with anyone. 

&lt;I&gt;TheMiles Between &lt;/I&gt;explores the wonder andmagic of a very real world where chance, mystery, and secrets abound.</default_description>
