Nicole Whitcomb feels safe leaving for the Denver airport
as the snow begins to fall, but soon ends up regretting her
decision. The avalanche misses her by inches, but black ice
sends her car tumbling into a ravine, half burying her car
in rapidly accumulating snow.
Michael Tyler enjoys the solitude of the life he has
created in the Colorado Rockies, but there is no way he can
ignore the injured unconscious woman in the wrecked
vehicle. Though it goes against his better judgment,
against his very instincts for survival, he brings her into
his sanctuary.
When Nicole regains consciousness, she's taken aback by her
luxurious surroundings and her taciturn host. Though he
knows he should keep his distance, Michael is strangely
drawn to the woman he's brought into his home. And though
there are some questionable oddities about Michael and his
lifestyle, Nicole is amazed to discover the many things
they have in common, until she discovers the one thing
Michael has spent years hiding, the one secret that could
result in her death.
Syrie James' NOCTURNE is a slow-moving story of star-
crossed lovers. Nicole and Michael are haunting characters,
each with a past that makes it difficult for them to
embrace the future. In each other they find a kindred
spirit, and their journey is a well written page-turner.
The characters go through a roller-coaster ride of emotions
from beginning to end, making this a story that will stick
with the reader.
When Nicole Whitcomb's car runs off a Colorado mountain
road during a blinding snowstorm, she is saved from death
by a handsome, fascinating, and enigmatic stranger.
Snowbound with him for days in his beautiful home high in
the Rockies, she finds herself powerfully attracted to him.
But there are things about him that mystify her, filling
her with apprehension.
Who is Michael Tyler? Why does he live in such a secluded
spot and guard his private life so carefully? What secret—
or secrets—is he hiding?
Nicole has secrets of her own and a past she is running
from—but Michael understands her better than anyone she has
ever known. Soon, she is falling as deeply in love with him
as he is with her— a profoundly meaningful experience that
is destined to change their lives forever.
As the sexual tension between them builds, however, the
clues mount up. When Nicole learns her host's terrifying
secret, there is nowhere for her to run but into the
blizzard raging outside, and Michael may be the only one
who can save her life.
