Story Notes:
Thank you for stopping in to visit the story of SPAC. It's a good wholesome tale of the struggles of love, finding, losing, and then finding it again, trusting. Trust is a huge issue with Nicole, our lead female. She tells you this at the beginning, so it's a retrospective tale.
1. The CAST by SparkApCider [Reviews - 2] 
(10 words)
Welcome to the beginning. Some faces from the soaps. I had to represent.
I grew up watching these things, and though some characters I hated...truly, you can't deny talent is what it is!
Two "Lucky's", yes. Jacob Young and Greg Vaughan!
My favorite IR couple...NIA, repped by Marissa Ramirez & Coltin Scott

3. Prologue by SparkApCider [Reviews - 0] (461 words)
I'd like to remind the reader that this is an account from the perspective of Nicole. And although at times you get the first hand account of the actions of others, try to bear in mind that when she's speaking about the intents of Brian, she is interpreting. This isn't Brian's speak. Go easy on him...k!
