This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
By Lee Woodruff
Publication Date: September 11
From Amazon:
Life is good for Maura Corrigan. Married to her college sweetheart, Pete, raising three young kids with her parents nearby in her peaceful Chicago suburb, her world is secure. Then one day, in a single turn of fate, that entire world comes crashing down and everything that she thought she knew changes.
Maura must learn to move forward with the weight of grief and the crushing guilt of an unforgivable secret. Pete senses a gap growing between him and his wife but finds it easier to escape to the bar with his friends than face the flaws in his marriage.
Meanwhile, Maura's parents are dealing with the fault lines in their own marriage. Charismatic Roger, who at sixty-five, is still chasing the next business deal and Margaret, a pragmatic and proud homemaker, have been married for four decades, seemingly happily. But the truth is more complicated. Like Maura, Roger has secrets of his own and when his deceptions and weaknesses are exposed, Margaret's love and loyalty face the ultimate test.

I like the cover! Nice pick!
My WoW!
Happy Wednesday!
This one is new to me..thanks for sharing it..i love finding new books:)
This doesn't exactly sound like my kind of read (fracturing marriages) as I tend to prefer happier cheer. I will need to keep an eye out for reviews that share if it is worth it.
Nice book pick this week. It's not one that I will pick up and read myself, but if you want to see what books I like to read then why not check out my waiting on wednesday Post :)

I like the cover, don't know so much about the story...
Would you believe this is on my WoW list, too - just not this week!I have enjoyed Woodruff's non-fiction books, so I am interested in seeing how well she transitions to fiction.
I haven't heard of this one before, but i'll definitely check it out!
Happy Wednesday!

Hi Jill!
Awesome meme, today was my first time hosting it! :)
I'm not sure this book is for me, but it's a good pick.
Never heard of it but the cover is pretty!
How do you ever find all those titles we've never heard about???
My WOW
I really like the title and the cover for this book, but it sounds so sad. I might cry reading it! Thanks for sharing though!

This book sounds great! Another one for the tbr list!
I do like these kind of stories, even though the theme has been done again and again. enjoy - added to my list:)
This is a different kind of book for me this week, not the usual thing i read but check it out please and let me know what you think :) x
I love the cover of this book you have picked, i think it is one i will read eventually :) thanks
This book sounds so good!
I love it when a book synopsis starts talking about an "unforgivable secret", that's always one sure-fire way to make me want to read it! :)
This sounds different but I do like the cover :D **Happy Wednesday**
Those We Love Most sounds like an emotional story. I enjoy books like this myself. Hoping for things to get resolved and how the characters get there can be such a ride.
I've heard that book is excellent!

Hmmm, not sure if I will read this book. Might be too much reality drama for me.

Not my type of book, but it still sounds good. Every once in a while I pick up something I wouldn't normally read and am pleasantly surprised.
Intriguing pick. I don't tend to read contemporary too often but this one does sound interesting.
I met Lee at BEA Bloggers this year - she's a very gracious and kind. I'm sure the book will be wonderful!
This looks like a fantastic read! I'd never heard of this author or book but I'm definitely adding it to my wishlist
I love the look and sound of this one! Thanks!!
Pretty cover! Your pick sounds like it is going to be full of heartbreak. And tears. Get the Kleenex! :)
Wow this sounds like it's going to be heart breaking!
This looks really good. Thanks for the heads up. Have fun reading and thanks again for the link up.
This is on my reading list too :)
Never heard of this one but it sounds interesting.
I don't know if I would love this, it sounds quite slow paced-- for me.
But thank you for sharing, Jill, and I adore the cover!<3

I must admit I've never seen this book around, and I tend to avoid novels that focus on the recovery of people who've lost something. But thanks for making me aware of it, and I might check it out again later!
Hi
I've not heard of this book and I don't think that it'd be my usual type of read, but thank you for bringing a new read to my notice.
Happy Reading!!!
Interesting book. I don't know if I'd read it though, I'm more paranormal than realistic fiction :P great pick though, i love the cover.
Neyra @DarkestAddictions
This is my first WOW. Great pick, the cover and the synopsis let us know it is an emotional story.
I'm not sure I can comment about the book, but I just wanted to say I've wanted to join "Waiting On" Wednesday for ages. :)
sounds like an interesting read:)
