review 1: Cassandra Whitmore is a successful woman with everything she could want, except for a husband. She has a great job, which she enjoys, and a loving family. She’s a member of a dating service and the book begins with her meeting one of her matches for dinner. He’s an attorney, successful in his own right, but to call him a mama’s boy is a huge understatement. When the date ends, not quickly enough, she ends up meeting her cousin at the club, even though that’s not really her scene. But, she is certainly glad she did. When she meets Nick, she is immediately smitten with him, and he with her. However, when she finds out that he’s from New York, her hopes dwindle. Nick is determined though to see her again, even though he’s only going to be in town a couple more day... mores.Things heat up pretty fast between the two, and after he leaves town, they embark on a long distance relationship. He tries to find a job in Los Angeles, but when things don’t pan out, they decide that she’ll move to New York. But, once she gets there, she can’t figure out why his family is less than welcoming. And what of the hang up phone calls and a mysterious car that always seems to be around wherever she goes? Let’s just say that things aren’t quite as they seem.Married in the Nick of Nine is a nicely written story about two people who fall in love, only to realize that love doesn’t quite conquer all. All relationships require honesty on both sides, and when Cass finds out what Nick has been hiding (and boy, is it a doozy!!), things really get rolling. Cass is a wonderful character whose strength is truly tested and her faith plays a big part as she tries to navigate what’s happened. And when you find out what Nick has been hiding, you will want to kick his butt, but not for long. He has a big heart and truly does want to share it with Cass, but there’s a lot of work to do. Married in the Nick of Nine is ultimately a story of faith in one’s self and redemption that will have you in tears toward the end. And, it will leave you with a smile in your heart.
review 2: Totally CapturedThe best way to describe where I've been for the last six hours is Captured…totally captured in the pages of Married in the Nick of Nine. From the beginning of Cass' demanding daydream until the end of the novel, the twists and turns snared me in a whirlwind of infatuation, romantic love, frustration, betrayal, grins, tears, heart pumping excitement and a very few places where there was a brief moment for deep sighs of relief. Alretha Thomas takes the reader on a breathtaking adventure with Cass and Nick. Her real lifelike experiences bring the reader to a zigzagging world of episodes that have you asking, "what in the world can happen next?" Thomas' dialogue is real, her character development, thorough, and her engaging plot is captivating. When you pick up this novel, be prepared to sweat out the suspense until the last page is turned and the unforgettable Nick and Cass are a part of your own literary world for a lifetime.Doris H.
