A prequel to "A Pleasant Surprise". Janice stepped out of the shower and began to dry off. What a day it had been. Her car had broken down 200 miles from home. She had been miles from the nearest town and had walked for an hour in pouring rain before she caught a ride. She had been soaked to the skin. So much for taking the scenic route. Then her luck had s...
