Love Unspoken

Guided by the digital map on her phone, Quinn found herself standing on the second floor of the specified hotel.

She stood before a door that led to a private room, the number of which she double-checked against the one she had been given.

For a full two minutes, she lingered outside, gathering her courage before finally knocking. From within, a man's voice beckoned, "Come in."Taking a deep breath, Quinn pushed open the door and stepped into the private room. The man inside, Chandler, was not what she had expected.
