Brief Character History
Kevin Fisher hired a new employee named Jana Hawkes for his coffeehouse Crimson Lights. She was English, just getting over being dumped by a guy in Chicago, and new to Genoa City. As we got to know Jana, the bohemian who rode a scooter to work, lived in a camper down by the lake and wore colored streaks or decorations in her hair, we found she knew a lot about art, the world because she had traveled around a lot as a kid, and she had this weird fascination with serial killers. Kevin and Jana began dating, wild adventurous dates like skydiving, but Jana knew too much about Kevin's family and Brad Carlton to be for real. Daniel and Lily's young marital bliss was interrupted when Alex arrived back in town and began blackmailing Kevin and Daniel threatening to expose how he had helped them to pretend to attack Lily years ago. Daniel told Jack and Phyllis about it, and both suggested he tell Lily the truth, which he finally did. Meanwhile Kevin and Gloria had come up with a scheme to get rid of Alex. They drugged Alex, and videotaped a faked a rape scene with the help of Jana. Once Alex saw the tape he left town.
Jana became manager of Crimson Lights, and she and Kevin, the quirky couple who only each other could understand, moved in together in an apartment in Michael's building. But Jana suddenly disappeared and so much of her blood was found in the park, she was feared dead. Surprisingly, Jana had been saving up her blood to set this all up. As part of her plan, she kidnapped Colleen so that Jana and her father Milan could get to the Nazi treasure in the Chech Republic before Brad and Victor. Once she had the secret code from Colleen, Jana admitted that her great-grandfather, a jeweler, had been forced to etch the inscription into the reliquary, and then afterward, he was murdered by the Nazis because he knew too much. She also surprised everyone by confessing to the murder of Carmen Mesta. Then Jana trapped Colleen and Kevin in a walk-in cooler in an abandoned building and set it afire. Although Jana had fallen in love with him, framing Kevin was her necessary out, and since Kevin had once tried to the same to Colleen, Kevin would be blamed and it would be assumed that he mistakenly got trapped with her this time. Jana's father Milan turned up at the catacombs after Victor, Victoria and Brad discovered the treasure. Milan locked them up, but was killed by the authorities, as he tried to escape with the treasure. As the smoke got thicker, Kevin gave Colleen his water soaked shirt to help her breathe, they bonded, and were later rescued by JT and Adrian, and Jana disappeared.
Months later, Jana reappeared to Kevin via video on his computer, begging for forgiveness and proclaiming her undying love for him. Kevin was torn, knowing Jana was the only person who had ever loved him for himself, yet she had tried to kill him. Revenge won out, and he lured her back to GC by telling her he forgave her and showing her Plum's money. Kevin met her in a warehouse, she pulled a gun on him, so he chloroformed her and held her there. Colleen had followed him, then Daniel and Michael, and they all pled with Kevin to turn Jana over to the police and not kill her. He called the police, then the others left. Jana was taken into custody, but had a seizure which turned out to be caused by a brain tumor. Kevin was torn between his love and hate for Jana, as she told the police that the others were there, and he had all that money - which they all denied, saying she was crazy. Jana needed surgery for which she could not pay, and went in and out of her delusion that she and Kevin are married and have two kids named Nigel and Kate. She convinced Kevin that the things she did in the past were caused by the tumor, so Kevin got her the money for the surgery by blackmailing his mother Gloria. Colleen became Kevin's new best friend, and joined him in his forgiveness and support of Jana who was released from prison and returned to living with Kevin and working at Crimson Lights.
Kevin was left without his number one barista when Jana left to be Sabrina's Assistant at the Newman Art Gallery. Gloria worked there for awhile unsuccessfully, and Jana part time until he found someone else, which ended up being Colleen.
Although Jana was originally planning her wedding to Kevin in "goth" style with Amber designing her gown, then influenced by being maid of honor for Sabrina began dreaming of a more traditional wedding, they ended up with a hippie style wedding at an ashram in Malibu. All in hippie attire except for Jana's white lace gown, Amber was her maid of honor and Daniel Kevin's best man with Michael as groomsman. Lauren, Gloria and Jeffrey attended, and Colleen tagged along as Daniel's date. To everyone's shock, the guru officiating turned out to be Michael's long lost father Lowell "River" Baldwin. Gloria and Michael gave him a tongue-lashing over his abandoning them before Michael was born, and Lowell retorted with cosmic gibberish about fate and the universe, and asked them not to turn him in to the Feds. Michael gave him hell with tears of hurt in his eyes, but left saying he would not turn him in. Meanwhile, Daniel and Colleen had sex, Amber spotted them, and left. She came home claiming she met and had sex with a surfer named Liam before she left. Jana and Kevin honeymooned driving a 69 Dodge Charger on the California coast.
