Is the third time the charm?<\/p>\n

Because I can think of three good reasons not to let Nick Sullivan back into my life.<\/p>\n

FIRST, I got over my infatuation with him – cold turkey. So what did he have to offer anyway? Mystery? Adventure? A sexy grin and a killer sense of humor? All of the above, if I think about it. Which I don\u2019t. Ever.<\/p>\n

SECOND, he had the nerve to come back! After fifteen years, he shows up looking (better than ever) for a place to hide, with a story about being framed for murder. Only problem is, there\u2019s no corpse. As if I\u2019d fall for that old line…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
