I have become a big Nikki Sex fan.  Her work consists of good stories, realistic characters, and engaging writing.Sure, there's lots of sex, some of it pretty kinky, but the underlying stories are almost always romances (not that kinky sex is a bad thing).  Her characters struggle to find their way through the unmarked minefield of life, as do we all.The principal characters here are young adults who grew up together, but drifted apart when an affair between their parents destroyed their families.  Now Emily, who has always loved her brother's best friend, Paul, longs to bring him back into her life, if only to extinguish her lonely romantic flame.Emily's plan for accomplishing this is to throw gasoline on that flame, although she doesn't see it that way at first.  And to further complicate matters, Paul, who never stays with a girl long enough to "fall in love," has just fallen in love with another girl, Candy, a sexual fireball.Wheels within wheels better than the best soap opera.  To help untangle these delightful characters is Nikki's recurring sexual repairman Andre Chevalier.  I just love Andre, and why not?  He's suave, but has the common touch.  Andre is like a wise personal guru with a sense of humor and a true reverence for women and for the notion of romantic love.  Plus, of course, he's a top-notch BDSM sex tutor.When Andre drops into the tormented love triangle of Emily, Paul, and Candy, he knows exactly what to do and say to each of them to resolve everything with humor and dignity.  And while he's at it, he rescues Emily's mother from her years of depression about her failed marriage.But how?  How does Paul decide between Emily and Candy?  How does Emily reconcile Paul with his father?  And who gets Tom's old Volvo?  You have to read this delightful book to find out.And you should!  It's an entertaining, satisfying, and oh yeah, stimulating read.  The best 99 you'll ever spend! (But hurry to get it for that price!)Nikki, please write a sequel?!
