Book excerpt: This January is different. It s as though the future is held here. Held at bay, held at more than arm s length. And the waiting is everywhere. School is over for Alex Delaney and he s waiting for his university offers only seventeen days away. The waiting is killing him. He s not expecting much from January. Bodysurfing, TV, but mainly waiting. So he s not ready for the girl who cuts past him on a wave. Not at all prepared for her perfect balance, compelling green eyes, and gold skin. January is about to change."
