HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA a dream!!! lolol. That is a MARVELOUS idea. I love it. Let's suggest it to JM and see if she finds it even remotely plausible...or at the very least, amusing. I had never considered the Whitney/Sheridan angle before, but you are soooo right. Remember the way Whitney, Victoria, and Alex intervened in Sheridan and Stephen's strife? Surely Whitney and Sheridan would do no less in Nicolas's case when they saw he showed no signs of thawing toward a girl they knew for a fact was NOTHING like her mother. That said, I cannot tell you how much I ADORE the idea of them arriving on her doorstep, unannounced, and inviting her to London where she can make QUITE the splash, like Alexandra did when Alex-Got-Her-Game-Back.
Perhaps Clayton (for selfishly, I insist he appear in this book...a lot) has business in Paris. He will see Nicolas, of course. Nicolas will ask how Whitney is, and Clayton will arch a brow and make one of his dry remarks about how HIS wife (note possessiveness on MY WIFE) is fine, though he'd think Nicolas would be more curious about how his own wife fares (note pointed emphasis on YOUR OWN WIFE). Nicolas will grow icy, cold, and bored and make some flippant remark about how she's rusticating in the country, and then Clayton, I imagine, will be quite amused when breaking the news to him--quite casually--that ACTUALLY when he left London two weeks ago, Julianna was there, taking the ton by storm. Which will so infuriate Nicolas he will be unable to resist slamming down his drink, vacating the premises, and returning home where he will order his valet to pack for London. Immediately.
By this point, I would hope Julianna is so peeved at him that she is quite unimpressed with any show of anger he cares to display. In fact, I hope she does all she can to enrage him all the more. It would serve him right if she has her very own handsome best friend, who drives Nicolas mad. Suddenly he will have a whole new understanding of how Clayton must have felt all these years with Nicki always shadowing Whitney. (Clayton will find this excessively amusing. As will I.)
La. I'm in love with this idea. (As I am with most ideas that offer more Clayton.)
