Waiting on Wednesday

Leap of Faith by Jamie Blair


Now that Leah Kurtz has a place to call home, there’s no way she can tell the truth.
That her name is Faith, not Leah. That she’s seventeen, not nineteen.

That the baby isn’t hers—she kidnapped her.

She had to kidnap Addy though. She couldn’t let her newborn sister grow up like she did, with parties where the drugs flow all night and an empty refrigerator in the kitchen holding nothing but pickle juice and ketchup packets inside.

She can’t risk losing Chris—the only guy she’s ever given herself to completely—by telling him she’s been lying. He’s the most generous person she’s ever known, and he’s already suffered the tragic deaths of his mom and infant sister.

But being on the run with a newborn catches up with her when a cop starts asking questions, and Chris’s aunt finds a newspaper article about Faith and a missing baby. Faith knows it’s time to run again—from Chris and the only place that’s ever felt like home.
This sounds so amazing!!! I can't WAIT for this and I seriously need this like now! I adore these types of contemporary and I feel like I'm going to sob my eyes out! Which, you know, I probably will. I also love the cover and it's sort of hopeful feel to it. And ...I have so many EXPECTATIONS FOR THIS!!! This just sounds so emotional!

  8. Why do you always choose such amazing books? It sounds like a really emotional read, which I'm really excited about! And that cover totally screams "emotional yet whimsical contemporary" even though from the summary it definitely does not sound whimsical lol. But now I'm really excited for this one too :)

    Fantastic pick, Nikki!

Welcome all! I'd love to hear what you think, even if they're lies saying that my reviews are fantastic. I take flattery in all forms ;D
