Waiting On Wednesday (3) - Contemporary heaven!

The One That I Want
The One That I Want by Jennifer Echols
Publication date: February 7th, 2012
Publisher: Simon Pulse
Find on: Goodreads, Amazon, Book Depository
Gemma can’t believe her luck when the star football player starts flirting with her. Max is totally swoon-worthy, and even gets her quirky sense of humor. So when he asks out her so-called best friend Addison, Gemma’s heartbroken. 

Then Addison pressures Gemma to join the date with one of Max’s friends. But the more time they all spend together, the harder Gemma falls for Max. She can’t help thinking that Max likes her back—it’s just too bad he’s already dating Addison. How can Gemma get the guy she wants without going after her best friend’s boyfriend?


You will have this on your wishlist if you've ever read a book by Jennifer Echols. She is a FANTASTIC contemporary YA author. We loved every single one of her books, but especially her simon pulse books! The cover is adorable and the synopsis makes us giddy with excitment!! 
What are you waiting on this wednesday? 


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that showcases upcoming releases that we are excited about.

    I have this on my tbr list too. =) I love Jennifer Echols. I need to work on reading her other books that are out. I've only read Going Too Far and that was a while ago. I need to re-read it, it's amazing!

    This sounds really good. I've never read anything by Jennifer Echols, so I'm definitely putting this one on my TBR list and adding it to the list of books to read for the 2012 contemporary challenge.

    Great Pick

    I've only read "Forget You" and I didn't even finish it. Haha, so Jennifer Echols hasn't made the best impression on me, but the cover for this looks so adorable!
