Since this is the season to stockpile books for the coming season of hibernation (at least around my house!) I thought I’d mention another book this week. I’m happy to tell you about Marilyn Brant’s new book, Friday Mornings at Nine. I haven’t read it yet, but Marilyn is a fellow RWA member, and I love her work. 🙂
So without further ado, here’s some info about Marilyn and her new book:
FRIDAY MORNINGS AT NINE
by Marilyn Brant
Kensington Books
Each Friday morning at the Indigo Moon Café, Jennifer, Bridget and Tamara meet to swap stories about marriage, kids and work. But one day, spurred by recent e-mails from her college ex, Jennifer poses questions they’ve never faced before. What if they all married the wrong man? What if they’re living the wrong life? And what would happen if, just once, they gave in to temptation…?
Soon each woman is second-guessing the choices she’s made — and the ones she can unmake — as she becomes aware of new opportunities around every corner, from attentive colleagues and sexy neighbors to flirtatious past lovers. And as fantasies blur with real life, Jennifer, Bridget and Tamara begin to realize how little they know about each other, their marriages and themselves, and how much there is to gain — and lose — when you step outside the rules.

“Friday Mornings at Nine is the perfect example of a book by an author whose writing just gets better and better. In her second book, Marilyn Brant’s prose is superb…” ~Pamela Kramer, Chicago Books Examiner
“Emotionally packed… A highly recommended women’s fiction read.” ~Kelly Moran, award-winning author and book reviewer
“Marilyn Brant’s sophomore effort…is a brilliant character study of three very different women each asking the question we all wonder about sooner or later: did we make the right choices during our journey and if not, what steps do we need to take in order to live our best life?” ~Leah Eggleston Krygowski, Manchester Books Examiner
