Unbreak My Heart by Melissa C. Walker
To be published: May 22, 2012 by Bloomsbury
Sophomore year broke Clementine Williams’ heart. She fell for her best friend’s boyfriend and long story short: he’s excused, but Clem is vilified and she heads into summer with zero social life.
Enter her parents’ plan to spend the summer on their sailboat. Normally the idea of being stuck on a tiny boat with her parents and little sister would make Clem break out in hives, but floating away sounds pretty good right now.
Then she meets James at one of their first stops along the river. He and his dad are sailing for the summer and he’s just the distraction Clem needs. Can he break down Clem’s walls and heal her broken heart? Told in alternating chapters that chronicle the year that broke Clem’s heart and the summer that healed it, Unbreak My Heart is a wonderful dual love story that fans of Sarah Dessen, Deb Caletti, and Susane Colasanti will flock to. {goodreads.com}
As soon as I heard about this book it was put on my "must-read-NOW" list. Everything about it sounds amazing... from the horrible heart ache, to spending the summer sailing, to meeting A CUTE NEW BOY, to mending a broken heart... ALL of it sounds like the perfect Ginger YA Contemp Read! I am going to preorder my copy right this second.
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
lol I't nice to see you're so eager to get your hands on this. And I bet it's a heart-breaking, amazingly cute story. Hope you'll have fun reading it once it comes out. =)

I received an eGalley of this several months ago and was so incredibly geeked to read it. Then my Kindle tanked and it sat there for a horrendous amount of time. Now that it's back in commission I'll have to pick it up soon cause you've just reminded me how wonderful this sounds. : )
ReplyDeleteGreat pick. : )
