Margie has always had amazing luck. In fact, her nonstop good fortune is so all-encompassing that she's convinced it's going to backfire any day. One afternoon her fears are realized as she discovers the source of her luck: a clandestine admirer, who has been secretly cleaning her house, paying her parking tickets, entering her in raffles, and otherwise trying to make her life a better place. In uncovering her benefactor, Margie has apparently found the ideal man. But what does she do with him?
