Nora tossed the paper towel in the wastebasket, then walked to the door. But she stopped before walking out. Maybe Ellie was right. Objectively, she never would have recommended what she was contemplatinga single night of passion, a one-night stand. But she was sick to death of thinking like Prudence.

All right, she repeated softly. Im just going to say goodbye and then we can leave. As she opened the bathroom door, she glanced over her shoulder at her friend, who was bending to remove the toilet paper from between her toes. Youre a very good nag. If I ever leave the Herald, Im going to recommend you for the job as Prudence. Youre beginning to sound more like her than I do!
