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 tension in the courtroom was thick as the judge prepared to announce the verdict. But deep down, I already knew how this would end. Christian’s performance during the trial had been flawless, there was no way Lyla could come out on top after how thoroughly he dismantled her arguments. Still, I couldn’t shake the nervous flutter in my chest as we all waited for those final words.


　　“And the court rules in favor of the plaintiff.”


　　Relief washed over me. It was finally over. The judge’s gavel echoed through the room, and I felt a weight lift from my shoulders. Christian glanced over at me and gave a small nod, his eyes filled with quiet satisfaction. I couldn’t help but return the smile, grateful beyond words for what he had done.


　　People began shuffling out of the courtroom, but before I could follow Christian out, I felt someone roughly grab my arm. I turned, startled, to find Lyla standing there, her face twisted with anger and desperation.
