Waiting on Wednesday: Things We Know by Heart by Jessi Kirby





****"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly event hosted by Jill at the Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.****


My pick this week is:


Things We Know by Heart
Things We Know by Heart by Jessi Kirby
Expected release date: April 21st, 2014
from HarperTeen
When Quinn Sullivan meets the recipient of her boyfriend’s donated heart, the two form an unexpected connection.After Quinn loses her boyfriend, Trent, in an accident their junior year, she reaches out to the recipients of his donated organs in hopes of picking up the pieces of her now-unrecognizable life. She hears back from some of them, but the person who received Trent’s heart has remained silent. The essence of a person, she has always believed, is in the heart. If she finds Trent’s, then maybe she can have peace once and for all.

Risking everything in order to finally lay her memories to rest, Quinn goes outside the system to track down nineteen-year-old Colton Thomas—a guy whose life has been forever changed by this priceless gift. But what starts as an accidental run-in quickly develops into more, sparking an undeniable attraction. She doesn't want to give in to it—especially since he has no idea how they're connected—but their time together has made Quinn feel alive again. No matter how hard she’s falling for Colton, each beat of his heart reminds her of all she’s lost…and all that remains at stake.


I've been constantly checking for a new book by Jessi Kirby for what seems like forever. So of course when I saw the cover reveal for this, I freaked out. Not only do I absolutely love the cover, but that synopsis got me, too. It sounds so different from any contemporary out there right now and I just love her books. And that cover! April needs to hurry up.

That's what I was waiting on this week. What about you?
