Hi Swooners :-)

This week my "can't-wait-to-read" pre-publication selection is:

Being Sloane Jacobs by Lauren Morrill

Expected release date: January 7, 2014

Links: Amazon / Barnes and Noble

Summary from Goodreads:

Meet Sloane Emily Jacobs: a seriously stressed-out figure-skater from Washington, D.C., who choked during junior nationals and isn’t sure she’s ready for a comeback. What she does know is that shed give anything to escape the mass of misery that is her life.

Not meet Sloane Devon Jacobs, a spunky ice hockey player from Philly who’s been suspended from her team for too many aggressive hip checks. Her punishment? Hockey camp, now, when she’s playing the worst she’s ever played. If she messes up? Her life will be over.

When the two Sloanes meet by chance in Montreal and decide to trade places for the summer, each girl thinks she’s the lucky one: no strangers to judge or laugh at Sloane Emily, no scouts expecting Sloane Devon to be a hero. But it didn’t occur to Sloane E, that while avoiding sequins and axels she might meet a hockey hottie-and Sloane D, never expected to run into a familiar (and very good-looking) face from home. Its not long before the Sloanes discover that convincing people you’re someone else might be more difficult than being yourself.

Well color me intrigued!!! This sounds like such a fun read!! Cant wait!
