Melanie went immediately to the spa the next morning to find Devon. She wanted to make sure he hadn’t gotten into any trouble because of her—she would feel terrible if he had.

The front desk girl greeted her with a smile. “Hi, do you have an appointment?”

“Um, no. Actually, I’m looking for Devon. Is he here?”

The girl scrunched her face up and whispered, “Devon was let go. But I can get you an appointment with one of our other masseuses. They’re all just as qualified as Devon.”

Melanie could hardly breathe. He’d been let go? “But what does that mean? Is he still on the ship?”

“Unfortunately not. He’s probably back in New York by now. Although, he could still be at the airport. They make you fly standby, you know?”

The airport. They were docked in Bermuda for another eight hours or so. That was plenty of time to take a cab to the airport and back.

“Thanks for all your help!” Melanie cried as she left the spa. She ran all the way back to her room, grabbed her backpack and dashed to the ship’s exit.

Once she was in the taxi bound for the airport, she sat back and took a breath. It would be fine. Everything would turn out okay. She would find Devon, he would forgive her, and they would exchange numbers so they could meet up in New York in a few days.

And then they would live happily ever after.

Ha! Who was she kidding? She’d known the guy less than four days, and while they’d had an amazing time together, he probably thought nothing of it. Certainly Devon had gone out with prettier, more interesting girls in his life—Melanie was more than likely just another notch in his belt.

But still…she had to find him. She had gotten him fired. An apology was the least she could do.

The taxi let her off outside the departures gate of the Bermuda International Airport. Melanie hastily settled her bill and then dashed inside, headed for—

For what? Where was she supposed to go now? And would they even let her inside the terminal? If not, she had no hope of finding Devon.

She approached an empty ticket counter where a woman in an American Airlines uniform greeted her with a sweet smile.

“Hello, passport, please.”

“Oh, I’m not flying, actually. I just…I need to find someone. He’s in the terminal. I think. Is there anyway to get through to find him?”

The pretty blonde tilted her head to the side with a sad puppy-dog face. “I’m so sorry, ma’am. The only way to get to the terminal is to have a ticket. But I could page him for you, if you like.”

Yes! Why hadn’t she thought of that before? “That would be wonderful. Thank you so much.”

The woman picked up the intercom. “His name?”

“Devon,” Melanie said, and then she had to wrack her brain for his last name. What had his boss called him? For the life of her, she couldn’t remember. She’d been in a lustful daze at the time.
