Tick...tock... tick... tock... Sarah sat watching the clock on the wall from her desk. She was desperately waiting for the next few minutes to go by so she could go home.

I had met my wife in a manner that was, by the admission of most people, a little foolish. About a year after the demise of my first marriage, I had headed with a few mates on a trek in Vietnam.

"Wow...this place is amazing!" I murmured to Tomo as our taxi wound up the lane towards the hotel lobby. Our car was surrounded by lush gardens and palm trees.

"You look stunning, just as beautiful as the day we met." I smiled at the compliment and hoped it was true. Kevin and I were out to dinner for our 10th anniversary and I'd decided to dress up as a night without the kids was a rarity. I'd gone with a tight little black dress, patent red leather heels and a very sexy black lace thong and bra I'd bought just fo...
