I do think the actress did better to sell her relationship with Nick than Bitsie/Elizabeth did with Juliette in the four years they were in love. There was always something missing/off between those two, at least for me which explains why I didn't shed a single tear/throw a fit when they suddenly put Nick and Adalind together. I didn't expect to like her with Nick but they won me over despite their relationship having more baggage than regular couples. Nick and Adalind simply worked. The rivalry passion they felt at the beginning easily translated to passion of the romantic persuasion and I bought what they were selling. The tension and hesitation felt natural because of their past. I'm reminded of a line that says you can't help who you love and Nick best examplified this. He easily for Adalind but remembering who and what she was, he hit the brakes on their burgeoning relationship only to fall madly and deeply in love because he could not help himself. They were more in sync as a couple in barely one whole season compared to him and Juliette who, for four years, felt more like two ships in the night, missing each on so many important issues of their relationship until it blew up in their faces in the most spectacular and very tragic way.
