| Ty Carmichael is a builder who lives in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and works for Diamond Custom Homes. One night in the pre-dawn hours he gets a disturbing phone call from old friend Nicolette Jeanne Paige (Nicki) who is hysterical. She comes to Fort Lauderdale the next day. They've known each other for 16 years. Nicki was the girl across the street when he was growing up. Nicki is an interior designer and a nude model for artists and art students. Ty is an example of walking sexual energy and wants Nicki. Nicki stays with him while she is in Florida. Ty has always protected Nicki.
The story of Nicki and Ty is one of those stories about a couple who have known each other forever and suddenly everything about their relationship changes. There is tremendous sexual tension between Nicki and Ty, which explodes when they begin working together and spending so much time together while Nicki stays at Ty's home. Their story is enriched by Verna David, a neighbor who is a surrogate mother to both Ty and Nicki and a very colorful individual. I look forward to more books by Ms. Dawn. This book is delightful reading and I recommend it to everyone.
