The plot thickens! As Poppy Spence moves gradually towards her lifetime's ambitions of becoming a successful author of romantic novels, her life as George's potential wife is moving towards its climax. Or is it? Although he protests his undying love for her, is he fastidious enough to carry their feelings for each other forward to their ultimate goal? Does his nemesis, Jonas Jamieson, have any part to play, as many scenarios move inexorably towards several ultimate conclusions? Does he have any positive choices to make in the downward spiral of a life he seems to have chosen? Ross's mother and father, Nell and Ross Booth, have always had important parts to play in the development of their o springs' life (Ross Junior and Poppy), almost as behind-the-scenes players. However, is it now their time to achieve important personal goals to replace, in their time together, what they missed in their earlier formative lives?
