Which Genoa City Beauty Will Be Nick’s New Love?

Nick had a rough year on The Young and the Restless, losing first his newborn son, then his wife. He got the son back (sort of; it’s complicated), but the wife is a different story.

As it doesn’t look like Sage will be back from the dead anytime soon (though, this is a soap, anything can happen), it’s time for the handsome widower to get back in the romance game. So who do you think should be Nick’s (Joshua Morrow) new love interest? Over 8,000 of you made your opinions known.

Chelsea For Your Mourning
Sparks flew on New Year’s Eve, and 55% of fans would like to see if they can light a fire. Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) won over half the votes for Nick’s heart. And just imagine how hot things are going to get when Nick learns the secret she’s been hiding…

Playing the Field
Meanwhile, second place with 19% of the vote went to the vague category of: Other, suggesting that of all the possibilities, you’re having none of them. Maybe someone new can come on the canvas. Or, at least, someone who doesn’t already have a past with a member of Nick’s family.

Next Verse, Same as the First
Sharon (Sharon Case) — it always comes down to Sharon, doesn’t it? It seems 15% of viewers wants to see Nick back with his first love. The big question is, will it make daughter Faith (Alyvia Alyn Lind) half as whiny, or twice as much?

Phyllis-Tine
And if you can’t have your first love back, how about the woman you cheated on that first love with? For 10% of you, Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) was the one who got away. And, now that she’s burned her bridges with both Jack (Peter Bergman) and Billy (Jason Thompson), maybe it’s time for Summer’s (Hunter King) parents to give it another shot?
