Waiting on Wednesday #39

Photobucket
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly blog post by Jill over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights releases we're eagerly awaiting.

My pick this week is:





Title: The Lost Son
Series: none that I know of
Author: Tamra Torero
Release date: October 9th, 2012

Summary:
Sixteen-year-old Jacob has always been able to charm his way out of trouble with the law. But when he’s sentenced to work at a family Christmas tree farm in place of Cody Matthews—a boy killed in Jacob’s last DUI—Jacob is in for a harsh reality check. This emotional story of loss, love, and redemption is impossible to put down.

 Why I want to read it:

1) I love contemporary stories. Somehow they're so much more realistic. (duh)
2) The cover reminds me of Christmas with all it's magic and miracles and stuff...
3) Well, I just want to know more about Jacob. Has he learned the consequences of his actions?

So how about you? What amazing book are you waiting on this week?

    This sounds really good. I've been getting into the contemporary stories a lot more lately. They seem to hit me a lot harder. I am definitely putting this on my list.
