1988 (#3) - Caroline's doubts and the relationship between Brooke and Ridge

Returning with Thorne from her honeymoon, Caroline feels she has made the right decision and married the only man who can ever make her truly happy. However, when her friend Brooke tells her that she's finally ended her relationship with Dave, who had made one last attempt to get back with her, and has started dating Ridge, the news doesn't seem to faze her. On the surface, Caroline seems fine with this development, but inside, it's clear that there's turmoil afoot. And Caroline's doubts manifest themselves in all their magnitude when, finding herself with Thorne and the couple formed by Ridge and Brooke stranded in the snow at the family chalet in Big Bear, the young woman finds herself wondering, observing some tender moments between Brooke and Ridge, if she had really followed her heart by marrying Thorne. Meanwhile, Brooke finds in Katherine a new and surprising ally, since the woman, increasingly worried by the tensions between the two brothers, is very happy to see Ridge away from Thorne's wife. As time goes by, Caroline's torments instead of subsiding become more acute; and disappointed that even her husband knew and kept her in the dark about Ridge's letter, she decides to break off her friendship with Brooke, accused of playing with her life and her feelings. And determined to respond with the same coin, she offers the woman a choice: break off her relationship with Ridge or prepare to face the man's fury, since if she continued to see him Caroline would tell him the truth about the letter that was never delivered. Terrified at the idea of losing Ridge, Brooke has no choice but to accept, but even though she tries to push him away, her heart can't stop staying by his side, especially now that Ridge is beginning to be more and more taken by the woman, whom he affectionately calls "Logan". And when Ridge proposes that she move in with him, Brooke, who would have liked nothing more, has a hard time refusing the proposal.
