Loosen Up by Max Walker

Jordan Hampton:
I was stressed beyond belief. My life felt like it was hitting dead-end after dead-end, and my job was making me want to pull my hair out strand by single strand.
So, when my boyfriend suggests a spontaneous trip to Miami Beach, I jump at the chance.
I had no idea what was really in store for us when we boarded the plane.
Actually, let me correct that: when we boarded the wrong plane. Instead of flying to Miami Beach, we were headed toward Vintage Ridge, North Carolina.
Remember what I was saying about stress? Yeah, multiply that by two lost Canadians and one exceptionally friendly flight attendant and you’d feel what I felt.
This was going to be an interesting vacation.

Brody Winters:
I loved my boyfriend with my entire heart and soul. So when he hurts, I hurt. That’s why I decided to plan an entire vacation focused on rest and relaxation, because I could see my Jordan getting more wound up by the day.
Who could have guessed that our perfect Miami vacation would have started with Jordan accidentally eating an entire edible as we sat on the wrong flight toward some city neither of us could even point to on a map.
All while I had a very special, blue velvet box tucked deep inside my bookbag.
This was not how I wanted to start the trip, but maybe this was exactly what we both needed after all?
