I was not supposed to arrive early for the early flight, but I did. The perfect marriage life I once thought was broken in front of me. I watched my husband and my trusted assistant cheat on me. 
The wrong suitcase led me to meet the man I had ignored. Can it help me find a new love life?
How will Hannah retaliate in the face of betrayal? Can Hannah find new love?

*********
There was something about Hannah that pulled me in, something I couldn't even explain. Even now, I know she is married, I found myself thinking about her more than I should. 
The way her eyes lit up when she smiled, the way she laughed with such genuine joy—it was all so captivating. I wanted to be the one to make her smile, to be the one she turned to when she needed someone.
But then, reality hit me—she was still talking to Michael. The minutes ticked by, and I began to feel of jealousy. Did married couples have that much to discuss? How long could they possibly talk? Would Hannah ever want to talk to me for that long? These thoughts gnawed at me, making me restless.

Wrong Taken, True Passion

　　The night was buzzing with laughter and chatter, but my focus remained on anything other than Christian. I could feel him sitting next to me, close enough that I could almost sense the tension radiating from him. Yet, I refused to engage. I wasn't going to give in and act like things were fine between us.


　　Instead, I kept myself occupied with the others at the table. Aubrey, as usual, was the life of the party, cracking jokes and dragging me into conversations. I appreciated it, but I could still feel Christian’s eyes on me from time to time, like he was waiting for me to look his way. But I didn't. I kept a smile plastered on my face, forcing myself to enjoy the company of our colleagues. Joseph  and Susan were talking about the upcoming project, and I nodded along, pretending to be invested in the conversation. It was easier than confronting the awkwardness sitting right beside me.
