Goss debuted on The Young and the Restless in April 2013. Her character Courtney is a friend of Summer Newman (Hunter King), who captures the attention of Summer’s brother Noah Newman (Rory Gibson). Courtney and Noah hit it off and began dating, but he becomes suspicious when she doesn’t share details of her life. 

Noah later discovers Courtney is a cop working undercover to bust a drug ring. The couple’s relationship progresses, and Noah proposes to Courtney. However, tragedy strikes on their wedding day when Courtney is killed by Mark Harding (Chris McKenna). Harding murders Courtney to cover up Marco Annicelli’s (Peter Bergman) identity.
