Contest: Dedication by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus

Win a Signed copy of Dedication by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus!

Ever wonder what it’s like to literally be on the receiving end of Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me a River?"  Or, any of Taylor Swift's songs, like "Forever and Always?"  Well, look no further.

Kate Hollis's ex-boyfriend's face plasters newsstands and TV, the Internet, and the multiplex. Jake Sharpe is one of the biggest recording stars on the planet, and every song he's famous for is about Kate. For over a decade his soundtrack has chased her -- from the gym to the supermarket, from the dentist's office to the bars. Now thirty-year-old Kate gets the call that Jake has finally landed back in their Vermont hometown for an MTV special. The moment she has been waiting for has arrived.

On the eve of their prom, Jake Sharpe vanished, resurfacing when his song "Losing" -- about his and Kate's first sexual experience -- shot to the top of the Billboard charts. And the hits kept coming, each more personal than the one before.

Now Kate gets her chance to confront Jake and reclaim her past. But after eleven years of enduring protracted and far-from-private heartbreak, everyone in Kate's life has a stake in how this plays out. Kate must risk betraying the friends Jake abandoned, the bandmates whose songs he plundered, and her own parents, who fear this will dredge up a shared past more painful than any of them want to acknowledge. But after getting the call in the dead of night and jumping on a plane, can she turn back now?


Dedication actually came out in 2007, but now it has been repackaged in a awesome new paperback cover that was voted on by readers! To be released March 2, 2010, this is your chance to win a signed copy!
