Author's notes: heh, this is my long standing trilogy with the very comiplicated Nick Carter and Monica Hartford. I'm putting this up simply because I don't have the heart not to. This series has been through hell and back with me and it's really my baby, even if it doesn't really represent how I write anymore. But Nick and MOnica have gained such an amazing fanbase - such a large group of faithful readers that I couldn't NOT put it up.

The story is still in my geocities files. I would pretty it up and change the format to make it more up to date, but each story holds around sixty chapters. So you can understand my laziness, no? These stories hold dear to me, for some reason. They've circulated the internet through so many BSB fanfic lists, and I (KINDA) proudy present to you: Nick and Monica

Trilogy began:2001
The story: ..is still ongoing. When Water Runs dry is the last installment, and I promise that I'm still working on it. (join the update list to know when I'll be updating :))

My Favorite Mistake
Monica Hartford is one of the world's most well known and talented actresses. Her life is constantly being watched over by the public and because of her strict manager Steve, he's decided that she should have a 24/7 body guard. Things begin to get complicated when that bodyguard is former Backstreet Boy, Nick Carter.

Any Given Dayn
Monica Hartford is assigned to do a short TV series in Germany, where coincidentally, the Backstreet Boys have an assignment also. Mixed feelings are brought up when she comes face to face with her old love Nick Carter, see what happens when they reunite.

When Water Runs Dry
An outrageously shocking act is committed one night. A few unexpected returns made by some familiar faces. And a tragic death that nobody expected. Follow Nick and Monica through their final journey where we learn.. that sometimes, letting go hurts a lot. But sometimes, holding on hurts even more..
