As Amber begins a romantic entanglement with Nick,Spin Me Round’s trailer suggests he might be hiding some dark secrets about his business and lifestyle.
Throughout the trailer, Amber is pulled deeper and deeper into Nick’s business circle, where she encounters a number of Nick’s friends and business associates.
