***The Buckingham Nicks Alternate Universe continues...***

"How can we be lovers if we can't be friends?" Michael Bolton once asked in song...but this story has another Michael Bolton song title...

Julia Buckingham and Jodie McVie were best friends from the moment they were born, and later, they were married. However, after a difficult grieving process over the death of his mother, Jodie's behavior has become too difficult for Julia to handle and they have decided to divorce. Things get even more complicated as Aaron and Olivia plan their wedding and Stevie and Lindsey take opposite sides in the divorce and their marriage of nearly fifty years is suddenly in jeopardy!

"That's What Love Is All About" is the story of three couples - one just starting out, one about to end, and one who has endured through time - all discovering that love is never easy, but it is always worth fighting for.
