About the book:

Sasha Cruz is a successful casting agent who knows exactly how to match the right person with the right role. What she does not do is relationships, because love takes time, energy, and vulnerability she is not sure she can spare.

On a work flight to Paris, Sasha meets a broodingly handsome stranger in seat F, and the chemistry is immediate. But when they part without exchanging contact information, she becomes convinced she has lost her chance at something extraordinary.

Determined to find him, Sasha sends an email asking for help, only to accidentally send it to her entire company worldwide. Suddenly, her private romantic crisis becomes an international search for the man from the plane.

As the hunt unfolds, Sasha hires a smoldering private investigator from her past, and his return complicates everything. The Missed Connection is a funny, sexy, emotionally layered romance about missed chances, second chances, and the surprising routes love can take.
