The first hour or so of their travels had been entertaining enough for Caroline as Jake told her some things she could see out the window. Hour four was a little different as she was getting fidgety in her seat and didn't really care to stare at the map anymore or try to find another radio station. At the next stop, she was totally buying an ( Read more... )

Caroline woke up in the middle of the night absolutely starving. The things she would have given to have lost that burning hunger even while she was thrilled to have her body back to normal.
