Shelly Hansen was horrified when Great Aunt Milly's infamous wedding dress arrived on Friday the thirteenth. Family legend said she'd marry the next man she met. So when she ran into handsome Mark Brady, Shelly told herself -- and him -- that she wasn't interested. But then she started seeing him everywhere. Just coincidence?
