CMG Welcomes Author Alretha Thomas to the Family

An author and playwright, Alretha Thomas is making her name through her pen. Her new book is MARRIED IN THE NICK OF NINE, and Conversations Media Group is excited to help readers around the world discover it.

 "Alretha is one of those authors that knows how to tell a great story," says Cyrus Webb, President of Conversations Media Group. "I've had the privilege of reading each of her titles, and I think that readers will learn what I have: she has a talent that deserves to be shared."
ABOUT MARRIED IN THE NICK OF NINE
Cassandra Whitmore is facing yet another Valentine’s Day alone. Her love life is as dry as the Sharpie pen she uses to mark an even more dreadful day on her calendar—her upcoming 30th birthday. Driven by the maddening ticking of her biological clock, Cassandra is determined to meet, fall in love with, and marry “The One” within nine months.
When Cassandra accompanies her cousin to a night club, her Type-A quest to meet a man is quickly rewarded by a stranger’s velvety, baritone voice asking if he might occupy the seat next to her. He’s Nicolas Harte, whose good looks leave Cassandra speechless, but not for long. After mustering enough courage to strike up a conversation, she learns Nicolas is everything she wants in a man—smart, successful, and available. There’s only one catch: He’s “GU” (geographically undesirable). Nonetheless, Cassandra falls in love with Nicolas and makes the uncharacteristic decision to move from Los Angeles to New York to be with him. But Cassandra gets a rude awakening when she discovers there’s something rotten in the Big Apple.
