They say that strangers are more dangerous than family. They say love will never hurt you. They say good people don't run.
Tyler knows they're wrong. Rugged Lace is actually Tyler White, but it's hard to tell the difference. All her life she's been stuck: Her older brother, Don, claims to love her. He says he'll never hurt her. All the while, he's been exploiting her over the Internet and pimping her out. She's never had the courage to leave, never really wanted to. Her best friend even agrees, they just stay the same.
Nothing can stay the same, though, when Don gets a little too close. Now it's up to Tyler and her best friend to get out. When push comes to shove, Tyler has to make a choice:
Go back to being used, or finally get away from Don.

Hidden Desire
It's been thirteen years since Tyler has seen Mikey for more than just a handful of minutes in a passing visit. A ten year age difference hadn't stopped her crush, not after the fateful day he'd saved her life; he'd been home for Christmas, visiting his sister Val, who's married to Tyler's older brother, Reggie. Val had given birth to their first baby on Thanksgiving, and that Christmas was the first time Mikey was coming home to see him. As Tyler had been leaving the house, she'd slipped on the ice, hitting her head and knocking herself out. If Mikey hadn't found her when he did, rushed her to the emergency room, she would have died of hypothermia. That's when her obviously unreciprocated crush had started. She'd known him all her life. She was nothing more than his best friend's kid sister, the one he barely saw since making it to the N.B.A. and having spent the last ten years playing out in California. But he's home now, having been traded to Washington, the same city Tyler just happens to be going to school in. At twenty-one can she finally catch his attention? Can she finally tell him about her crush? The one she's had for the last five years. Will he ever see her as anything other than his best friend's little sister?Complete
