It's Fall 1997 and Stevie and Lindsey have it all...almost. With a wedding being planned and a baby on the way, a Fleetwood Mac reunion tour and the news of the band being inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, everything has fallen into place.
That is, except for Lindsey's tie to a woman from his past that can't seem to take no for an answer.
Pregnant with Lindsey's child from their brief relationship , Kristen Messner embarks on a campaign to get Stevie and her unborn child out of the way to have Lindsey for herself...and what results is a fall from grace...and quite possibly, the Buckingham Nicks happy ending that should have been.

Told in the first-person point of view by all three people involved in this love triangle, "Everybody Loves You" will answer question... Will Stevie choose comfort, passion, or her own independence from it all?Complete
