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: Switched
Publisher: Random House Publishing Group - Flirt
Genre: contemporary
Audience: NA
Audience: NA
Author: Cassie Mae
Release date: December 2nd, 2013Publisher: Random House Publishing Group - Flirt
Summary:
Cassie Mae redefines the New Adult genre with a novel that answers
the eternal question: What do you do when you’re head over heels for
your best friend’s guy?
Ever since high school, Kayla has been crazy for gorgeous football player Talon. But before she could muster the courage to tell him, he became a hot item with her beautiful BFF, Reagan. The only person who knows Kayla’s secret is Wesley, Talon’s best bud—and he’s got it bad for Reagan. Now they’re all in college together, hanging out 24/7. For Kayla, seeing the two lovebirds together is absolutely unbearable. So Kayla and Wesley hatch a plot to drive them apart before Talon has a chance to give Reagan the Christmas gift she’s been waiting for.
Soon enough, the once happy couple is fighting. Reagan suddenly can’t get enough of Wesley’s goofy sense of humor, and Talon seems to be paying more attention to Kayla than a guy who’s “only a friend” ever should. But just when everything seems to be falling into place, Kayla and Wesley accidentally spend a night together and discover a hitch in their plan they never considered: that switching partners may not lead to a perfect ending after all.

Why I want to read it:
1) Gorgeous cover
2) The concept sounds appealing
3) I'm a sucker for good contemporary romance :)
