Vincent tries to avoid his ex-agent and scorned seducer Hilary Baker at the publisher's party, only to find she viciously set up gay fellow author Justin Hopkins, an instant friend, as his 'mate'. Amy has to stand in for a judge on 'family emergency' and is ruthless on model students Nathan Larsen and Jonathan Wanderley from good homes, who tortured the neighbors' cats to death for having the police break up their loud nightly frat party. A couple's adoption can't be finalized because the previously unknown biological father turns up and objects. Written by KGF Vissers See less
