On My Wish List (64)





On My Wish List is a fun weekly event hosted by Workaday Reads and runs every Saturday. It's where we list all the books we desperately want but haven't actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming.


Title: Delicate
Author: Steph Campbell
Publication Date: July 17, 2012

Synopsis:

Sydney Pierce has just met the guy of her dreams…just don’t tell her psycho boyfriend, Trevor.

With a gorgeous boyfriend, a thriving gymnastics career and a stellar academic record, anyone would assume that Sydney has it all. That's precisely what the seventeen-year-old perfectionist wants you to believe, and she works hard to keep up the pretense. Especially now that there are cameras following her for a documentary on Olympic hopefuls. 

When Grant, the charming new student, disrupts her carefully crafted routine, the cracks beneath her perfect facade begin to rise to the surface and despite Trevor's objections to their friendship, she can't stay away from him.

As her connection to Grant pulls her closer to him, the once lighthearted relationship with Trevor takes an intense and dark turn, forcing her into a position in which not only her happiness, but her safety is at stake. Can Sydney learn to let go of everything she is clinging to in order to gain everything she has ever wanted, or will she realize her breaking point too late?


I came across this book via another blogger's wish list not too long ago and I had to add it to mine. Psycho boyfriend? Sign me up! I'm still feeling the Olympic love from this year's games, so I'm looking forward to reading about that aspect of the story too. Basically, it just looks like a kickass read :)


What about you? What is your heart's desire this week? Leave me a link in the comments and I'll come check it out!
