The Way We Were Meant to Be

Erica wants to have it all figured out. She's fresh out of college, itching to put her master's degree in psychology to use. Her fiancé of five years swears on his life they'll set a date for their wedding any day now. On top of it all, her sister and best friend Nolan are destined to be the anchors by her side for the rest of their lives. These are all the makings of a damn good life. So why do her feelings get all scrambled up after a silly argument and a drunken kiss that doesn't know when to stop?

Nolan has been in love with Erica probably since the moment he laid eyes on her way back in high school, but an on-again-off-again relationship with her current fiancé has kept him from ever making a move. So he sat back and tried to get a handle on his own life. He's dating a few girls here and there. He will definitely put his license in business and finance to good use. Things are stable with his best friend sticking by his side. Until a bottle of wine and a list of complaints about her husband-to-be leads her to lock lips with him, and he can no longer find the strength to resist her.

Now, they're both screwed.
