Beau and Annie Spencer's marriage was crumbling.  Annie was busy with medical school, which she decided to pursue after discovering her husband had given up his law career to support her by working at the family hotel.  With Beau returning to the law field, he resented his wife's busy schedule.  He found solace and comfort with Melinda Gray.  Annie was facing her own dilemma.  Her instructor Dr. Jeff Ward didn't think she was a serious student and made her life hell.  Annie took a leave of absence so she could concentrate on her marriage and things might have worked out except Melinda revealed she was pregnant!  She wanted to snare Beau so badly she blackmailed his mother Jane with the news that she wasn't Beau's birth mother.  In time, Annie and Beau split, with him marrying Melinda.  Annie then took up with Jeff Ward.
