[edit] Katrina pre-Novacom
Katrina went to college in Odyssey, and was on a game show, trying to win money to help with the tuition when she first met Eugene. Her parents are very wealthy, but wanted her to pay her own way through college. She started dating Eugene not long after and their relationship was never simple, it seemed like something was always going wrong. When Katrina became a Christian, with the help and guidance of Connie and Whit she decided she should break up with Eugene and move back in with her parents because Eugene was not saved. When she heard that Eugene had become a Christian about a season later, they began dating again, but went through some rocky times due to the long-distance dating. During her stays in Odyssey though she worked at both Whit's End and Holstein's Books. They became engaged in For Whom The Wedding Bells Toll, Part 3. It was during the Novacom saga when they married under strange conditions. Mr. Shanks, her father was murdered by Andromeda, and Eugene and Katrina were married by a friend at her father's bedside in the hospital just minutes before his death. After that she and her husband had to go into hiding for a few years as the tension wore off. No one was sure if we'd ever see them again.
