The Promise of Amazing
By Robin Constantine
Release Date: December 31, 2013
Summary: Wren Caswell is average. Ranked in the middle of her class at Sacred Heart, she’s not popular, but not a social misfit. Wren is the quiet, “good” girl who's always done what she's supposed to—only now in her junior year, this passive strategy is backfiring. She wants to change, but doesn’t know how.Grayson Barrett was the king of St. Gabe’s. Star of the lacrosse team, top of his class, on a fast track to a brilliant future—until he was expelled for being a “term paper pimp.” Now Gray is in a downward spiral and needs to change, but doesn’t know how.
One fateful night their paths cross when Wren, working at her family’s Arthurian-themed catering hall, performs the Heimlich on Gray as he chokes on a cocktail weenie, saving his life literally and figuratively. What follows is the complicated, awkward, hilarious, and tender tale of two teens shedding their pasts, figuring out who they are—and falling in love.
The first thing that caught me was the cover of this book. Then, when I read the summary, I knew I just had to read it. Two people who are complete opposites yet end up falling for each other? Can you get any more perfect than that? I'm so excited to see how Gray and Wren's relationship grows and how they end up falling in love :)
This looks like a great book. I saw this one just a bit back on another WOW post and added it to my TBR shelf. Great choice!
