Excerpt:
Justin Devereux fumed as he strode on board the aircraft. Heads would roll over this debacle. If he hadn't needed to get out of England so urgently, he would have waited for another flight. To hell with the risk of being grounded by a blizzard.
He showed his ticket to the flight attendant. He hadn't flown in economy class for years, wouldn't be doing it today either if he had any say in the matter.
"I'm so sorry about this mix-up, Mr. Devereux. The airline did everything it could to get you a last minute business-class seat, but like first class, it was booked out."
Well, you didn't try hard enough, he nearly said, but bit back the angry words. It wasn't the flight attendant's fault that his booking still floated around in cyberspace.
"We were able to get you an aisle seat near the front."
"Thank goodness for that at least."
On being shown to his seat, he took off his cashmere coat, folded it neatly and stowed it in the overhead locker. If he had even an ounce of luck, the seat beside him would remain empty, but he wouldn't take bets on it. Setting his briefcase on the floor, he rested his laptop on the vacant seat. What a shocking few hours it had been.
At least it was a little more spacious here. He couldn't understand why there was extra leg space and only one other seat when there would be normally at least three, sometimes four seats, jammed together.
Closing his eyes, he thought back on the last twenty-four hours. He didn't care about Deanna dumping him for Simon as their relationship had just about run its course. Running off with millions of dollars of his employees' pension funds? Now that was something else.
