[edit] Model who cares
Nikki was a former model at the House of Gianni, a fashion house in Los Angeles. She was also the roommate and best friend of Michelle Miller who moved in with her, after she left scheming husband, Lance Miller. Nikki and Michelle were a rock of support for each other.
She had an arch-rival in scheming and self-destructive model Tania Ford, who had taken the title of "Face of Gianni" from her, aided and abetted by scheming Maria Gianni. To add insult to injury, she fired Nikki from her job as a model for a so-called "breach of morals clause", but it was done out of sheer spite towards her, because she had won a date from Maria's former fiance, William Chandler, the son of her hated enemy, Sophia Blakely.
Although Nikki had had more than her share of troubles, she proved to be a reliable and dependable friend to Michelle and all she was around, except Tania, whom hated her and the feeling was mutual.
Meanwhile, Nikki had fallen in love with William, and he with her, she has also discovered that she is pregnant with William's child. However, what with William having had to fight with Maria all the time, Michael Bauer, Luke's best friend, who had a crush on her, had been picking up the slack and helped take care of Nikki.
Nikki took a terrible fall and landed at the base of her stairs in her apartment. It was eventually discovered that it wasn't Tania who pushed her, (although she would have relished it) but Nikki and Michelle's arch-enemy, Maria who had pushed her.
It was also discovered, to Michael's horror, that the baby wasn't William's but his. This, added with the discovery that Maria had, in essence, killed his unborn child, had led Michael to no longer work for Gianni.
Nikki evenutally became a modeling agent, and her relationship with Michael was stronger than ever. Then mobster Eddie Zarouvian went and shot Michael; while Nikki was injjured by the door in her apartment in a home invasion; and kidnapped Michelle.
As Nikki awaited word on Michael; she and Gloria Thompson, who worked at the hospital; helped get the police to Michelle's former residence and got Eddie and his partners arrested. Both Michael and Nikki recovered from their injuries and they began their new lives.
