Best friends from Madison, Sharon Collins and Grace Turner both found love at a young age. Sharon married wealthy Nick Newman, while Grace took up with hunky Tony Viscardi. Grace and Tony began looking for the child Sharon had given up for adoption years earlier when it appeared Nick and Sharon’s newborn might die.
Grace and Tony found Cassie, the child Sharon had given up for adoption, but Grace fell in love with the girl while waiting for the right time to break the news to Sharon and Nick. It was almost a year before Sharon found out Grace was harboring little Cassie and they were reunited. Tony and Grace broke up when she became obsessed with Nick and later died after being hit by a motorcycle.
Sharon and Grace’s friendship was never the same after Grace withheld Cassie from her and began to pursue her husband Nick. Unbeknownst to Sharon, Nick had sex with Grace one night while drunk, thinking she was his wife.
Nick and Grace kept their sex tryst a secret from Sharon. He gave her a job as his assistant at Newman Enterprises to assure her silence.
Grace continued to pursue Sharon’s husband Nick after becoming his assistant. When she managed to take a business trip with him during a period of time when he had fallen out with Sharon, the pair had sex. Sharon later overheard them talking about it and dumped him.
Grace took up with attorney Michael Baldwin during the custody case involving Cassie. He was representing Cassie’s adoptive mother, Alice, who had previously abandoned her. Grace felt betrayed when he helped Alice win custody rather than take a payoff.
Grace showed up in Genoa City after her boyfriend, Cameron Kirsten, went missing. Unaware that Cameron had beaten her former friend, Grace took part in Cameron’s scheme to gaslight Sharon, who believed she had killed him. Later, Nick realized Grace was involved and convinced her to help expose the creep.
Nick summoned Grace to Genoa City more than once over the years when he was on the outs with Sharon. She was more than happy to provide comfort and sex. When he invited her to town to question her about Mariah, and the possibility Cassie had a twin, she was dismayed to learn he only wanted information, despite her meeting him in lingerie.
