Growing up in a small town, Sarah Wright knew city boy Jake Ryland was going to be trouble the minute she saw him.
In order to help a friend, Jake moved from his home in the city - with its vast amounts of entertainment options and women - to a small town in the middle of nowhere. Accustomed to the fast paced life he loved, life now seemed to move as slow as the molasses the South was known for. Until he met Sarah.
Sarah knew Jake’s stay in town was temporary, and did her best not to be drawn in by his charm and good looks. And after a disastrous first date, she thought she was safe. Little did she know...
As their relationship builds, so does their chemistry...and their feelings for one another. Do they try to find a way to make it work, even though they come from different worlds? Or do they walk away now and wonder what might have been?

Alex is a debuting musician and dreams to become a rockstar. Emily is a homeless that lives on London's streets. Alex is an alcohol and sex addict. Emily is a drug addict that can't get rid of Oxicondon. The two of them live so different lives that they seem to come from different planets; the only thing that they have in common is the square where they first met in a cold night in London.
In the beginning Emily doesn't want to have Alex around. She finds him irritating and she is very distrustful; the boy, on the other hand, is almost obsessed trying to help her and he trusts her completely. Alex needs all his patience and stubbornness to convince her to trust him because living on the streets made her suspicious.
Alex shifts between night where he is drunk and days where he tries to help Emily. His behavior jeopardizes his relationship with his bandmates and friends. They are excited because they are negotiating a management deal but their success is related to Alex capacity to write two new songs, something that Alex can't do because of his writer's block.
Alex needs a harsh wake up call to rouse from the numbness that is deep in him since he left his family. He will be forced to deal with his past, his demons and the emotions that he buried under loads of alcohol. He will have to face the reality and grow up, putting aside his painful past and helping someone that needs him the most, Emily.
He is ripped apart between his friends that need those lyrics and Emily that need his help. He finds himself in the position he has to choose and everything seems painful and wrong. In the end, those choices make him understand what is really important to him and everything starts to fall in the right place.
Waiting is a story about pain, self-destruction and rebirth that link two persons apparently frail and different that can find a way, together, to save themselves.
