By Kate Klise
In The Bag was just released last month so it’s a fairly new
one, and what I love about this book is that the premise was sparked because
the author, Kate Klise actually received a mysterious note in her bag from an
airplane passenger which prompted her to write this novel. It turns out that
the mysterious note-writer was married and just looking for some side action,
which Kate Klise was NOT interested in, but it did give her the jump-start for
this fun and flirty light read which is about connecting not only two adults
but their children as well as they mix up their bags during an international
flight!
Meet two single parents who think they’re too busy to date
and two teenagers who can’t stop writing flirty emails. This is a tale of
connections—missed and made—in a universe that seems to have its heart set on
reuniting Ms. 6B and Mr. 13C.
Webb--
I can't believe I picked up the wrong bag at the airport. My dad is never going to let me hear the end of it.

I can't believe I picked up the wrong bag at the airport. My dad is never going to let me hear the end of it.
I don't understand why Mom told me to pack my worst underwear. And now I've lost my bag? Ack!
Andrew--
I cannot stop thinking about that woman in seat 6B on the flight to Paris.
Daisy--
I don't have time to worry about the creep sitting in 13C who slipped a note in my purse. I have to find my daughter's missing bag before this ruins our vacation.
In the Bag is a smart and stylish story that explores the old-fashioned art of romance in a modern world, where falling in love can be as risky as checking a bag on an international flight. Buckle your seat belt—it's going to be a bumpy vacation!
