Description
Seventeen-year-old Matt "Owl" Owen is living in the heyday between school and the rest of his life. He has his friends, the beach, and the surf -- and the big event on his calendar is a date with Hayley Churchill, an absolute goddess. When she asked him to take her to Stink's eighteenth birthday, Owl thought he'd die. Is it possible his best friend's sister has finally come to her senses, or is Owl just putting himself on?
It's supposed to be the best summer of his life, a final hurrah before Owl and his buddies are forced to grow up and start the next phase of life, but he and his surfing crew are about to get dragged kicking and screaming into the adult world -- and nothing will ever be the same again.

Praise For…
Surfgirl [Hayden's] characters are well written, and the females in particular are so strong you feel that you know them. A good book to read when there's no swell. Loan it to your mates.
Tracks Magazine [Last Wave] evolves seductively with hot chicks, mad parties and big days.
