Thanks to Hachette, you can win the audiobook version of Joshilyn Jackson's Backseat Saints.  There will be two winners.
I've reviewed the book, but this is what Publishers Weekly said:
"Readers willing to stick through a slow beginning will be rewarded in  Jackson's eventually riveting fourth novel (after The Girl Who Stopped  Swimming). When abused Rose Grandee isn't getting up the nerve to do  something about her violent husband, Thom, she reminisces about high  school sweetheart Jim Beverly, who once promised to kill Rose's  alcoholic father. Rose is also consumed with memories of her mother, who  abandoned her when she was a little girl. During what seems like a  chance meeting, Rose receives a tarot card reading and is told she'll  have to choose between her husband's life and her own, though Rose later  realizes, conveniently for the plot, that the card reader is her  estranged mother. Egged on by the prophecy, Rose searches out Jim and  plans on manipulating him into killing Thom, leading to a tense final  section that crescendos with an ending appropriate for a woman with so  much fight in her. Though Jackson does a good job conveying Rose's  uncertainty and ambivalence, the initial sounding of these themes comes  off as redundant and overly long; later, Jackson's writing becomes  kinetic, reflecting her heroine's metamorphosis. "
