Highest Reward

I never back down from a challenge.

Vacation romance? Sign me up.

Working half a country away from my friends sucked but it was what I wanted after college.

Didn't imagine I'd miss this group of people as much as I do.

So the opportunity to crash my best friend's honeymoon was too good to pass up.

It's an excuse to get out of town and figure things out.

When I meet Miriam, I know my time will be otherwise occupied.

It's just vacation. I'll never see her again.

But by the end of the week, she knows the person I've kept hidden from everyone for years and there's nothing I want more than her.

hen without a word, she disappears.

No calls. No texts. No explanation.

That wasn't the woman I'd come to know.

Maybe she'll become a memory but I won't be able to live with myself if I don't track her down.
