She likes what she has, but misses what she had, and wants to find out if she can have it all. She's playing with fire, not to mention the feelings of the two people who love her most in the world, but Nicole lures her former fiance back into her new life, opening the floodgates of anger, passion, pain...and refreshing honesty.
