Waiting on Wednesday - Exile

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


 TITLE: Exile
AUTHOR: Kevin Emerson
SERIES: Exile #1
PUBLICATION DATE: April 29, 2014

SYNOPSIS: Catherine Summer Carlson knows how to manage bands like a professional—she’s a student at the PopArts Academy at Mount Hope High, where rock legends Allegiance to North got their start. Summer knows that falling for the lead singer of her latest band is the least professional thing a manager can do. But Caleb Daniels isn’t an ordinary band boy—he’s a hot, dreamy, sweet-singing, exiled-from-his-old-band, possibly-with-a-deep-dark-side band boy. And he can do that thing. That thing when someone sings a song and it inhabits you, possesses you, and moves you like a marionette to its will.

Summer also finds herself at the center of a mystery she never saw coming. When Caleb reveals a secret about his long-lost father, one band’s past becomes another’s present, and Summer finds it harder and harder to be both band manager and girlfriend. She knows what the well-mannered Catherine side of her would do, but she also knows what her heart is telling her. Maybe it’s time to accept who she really is, even if it means becoming an exile herself. . . .

On sale in April 2014, Kevin Emerson’s EXILE is a witty and passionate ode to love, rock and roll, and the freedom that comes in the moment when somebody believes in you, even if you’re not quite ready to believe in yourself.

Okay, I know I kind of cheated with this one. But I figured that since it was only published yesterday... I couldn't resist. Not only does it sound like an interesting book (music + mystery + romance = <3), but Kevin Emerson actually recorded three of the songs the band sings. Isn't that cool?

What are you waiting on?

    I hear you--it's good enough-sounding to post anyway. I totally dig the fact that it has its own official soundtrack, too! <333
