Venus Parson's flower shop is blooming, but her relationship
with husband Jake, former rap artist turned actor, is in
need of water. After starring in his first movie with his
former lover, Sirena Lassiter, Jake goes on a promotional
tour that sets Venus's nerves on end. She trusts Jake, but
something is off-kilter in their relationship. Is it the
time apart or is Sirena up to no good? Adding to her stress
are her mother's recurring fight with cancer and her friend
Miriam's suspicions about her own husband, not to mention
her long-time nemesis Trevelle Doval, the fallen from grace
former television evangelist.
In UN-NAPPILY IN LOVE, Trisha R. Thomas shines a light on
the concerns of a host of working mothers who are managing
the lion's share of the day-to-day activities of their
families—managing school drop-offs and pick-ups, getting
roped into volunteering for their children's extracurricular
activities, supporting a friend in crisis, dealing with
family illnesses—while trying to maintain a business persona
away from home. Venus does so with a wry touch of humor and
a scathing yet lighthearted introspective which makes the
story fun.
Author Trisha Thomas has a particular knack for keeping the
story rapid paced yet meaningful, with unexpected plot
points that in retrospect are absolutely critical to adding
story depth. UN-NAPPILY IN LOVE is the fifth book in this
series. Each one adds a layer of delight to this literary cake.
In this new Nappily novel, Venus' husband begins a new movie
career, and she must pull out all the stops to save both him
and their marriage from his all-to-sexy co-star.
