Summary
“You should get back home to your wife,” she says carefully, slowly, like it’s a reprimand she doesn’t trust him to register as one unless she draws attention to it.
He pretends he didn’t hear her.
It’s only later, at the bus stop, that a firm sense of certainty washes over Frank for the first time in a very long time. He’d gotten it all wrong. Mel clearly has someone else to preoccupy herself with. It was embarrassing, really, to assume she would want a fuck up like him. At that moment, like the punctuation to some cosmic joke, the wedding ring he’s been fingering absentmindedly slips off his finger and skitters around in a circle between his feet. He crouches down to pick it back up as the last bus home flies past. He half wishes it had hit him; it probably would have hurt less than the realisation that he has feelings for Mel King, and she doesn’t feel the same way.
OR
Frank wants Mel so badly he's willing to fuck up his whole life to have whatever crumbs of her he can scrape together. The question is: how many people is he going to hurt on his way to her, and will he stop before she becomes one of them?

For fleeting moments, it almost felt as if what they were doing wasn’t work at all, but something she had chosen to share with him specifically.
And Frank loved to work with her. She was perceptive and analytical, but she also carried a strong emotional leadership that allowed her to notice things others would overlook. In the middle of the turbulence of his own life, Frank found it refreshing to watch someone move with such determination without a trace of arrogance.Or
Frank Langdon realizing he doesn't need to be perfect to be good. And he doesn't need to be good to be loved by Mel.

Summary
Some love stories begin with an unexpected meeting.
Colin and Penelope’s began with a promise.
They were only fifteen when they fell in love, convinced that what they had was simple, eternal, unbreakable. For years, it was.
But time has a way of pulling people apart. Colin became consumed by work, travel, and responsibilities. Penelope stayed behind, filling the spaces he left empty, until she began to disappear from his sight altogether.
What was once effortless love became silence. What was once certainty became doubt.
After eighteen years together and fourteen years of marriage, one devastating argument changes everything. A slammed door. A business trip. A goodbye that never came.
Penelope refuses to let their story end without a fight. Determined to save the marriage she still believes in, she follows Colin before the distance between them becomes impossible to cross.
But some journeys change everything.
And some doors should never be opened unless you’re ready for what’s waiting on the other side.
Penelope wasn’t.
Because when she finally finds Colin, he isn’t alone.
