He deserved every bit of my tongue-lashing and more for what he''d done.Especially when that lazy smile graced his perfect face in response to my rant.Only it turned out, the man I''d just told off wasn''t the right guy. Oops. My mistake. Embarrassed, I slunk out without an apology.

Only this time, I went to the airport and booked a ticket to California. We were about to find out if one phone call could bring two lost souls together or if my drunk dial really was all just a big mistake.
