Summary
"Ali and her ex-boyfriend, Nico, both eighteen, rehash their ill-fated romance during a road trip to sell the 1968 Firebird convertible she just inherited from her estranged father." --
When Ali Collins's estranged father passes away and leaves her his only prized possession-- a 1968 Firebird convertible-- it reminds her too much of all her father's unfulfilled promises. A buyer three hundred miles up the Pacific coast is offering enough money for the car to save her childhood home from foreclosure. There's only one problem: she has no idea how to drive a stick shift. But her ex-boyfriend, Nico, does. Their trip is filled with detours, roadblocks, and tension-- until Nico starts collecting items from the quirky strangers they meet along the way, They seem to be leading her to an unknown truth about her father-- and maybe about herself. -- adapted from jacket.
