Airic and his famous televangelist wife, Trevelle Doval, make the evening news when Airic is accused of domestic battery and his life is suddenly turned upside down. But when Venus and Jake try to suspend Airic’s visitation rights with Mya, they discover that Airic isn’t willing to go down without a fight.

Meanwhile, Jake’s best friend, Legend, turns up on his doorstep with trouble not far behind. The past is back with a vengeance, including blackmail, murder and enemies who are looking for payback. But everything takes a dangerous new turn when Venus goes missing. For Jake it’s now a race against time to save the woman he loves.

Review

"Thomas once again lets her characters tell their stories in lively and distinctive voices. Smartly paced, fast and funny."--Kirkus Reviews

PRAISE FOR NAPPILY FAITHFUL:

"Thomas neatly weaves issues of family, parental and social responsibility into the domestic dramas."--Kirkus Reviews 
“You’ll find yourself caring about these characters Thomas has created over the past seven years, beginning with her debut novel Nappily Ever After…This latest novel proves that Thomas has few peers when spinning a cliffhanger.”—Essence magazine
"Nappily Faithful is a wonderful well-written novel about love, loss and the lengths a mother will go to in order to protect her child...Trisha R. Thomas' newest book is a guranteed page-turner with more twists and turns than a roller coaster....impossible to put down."--South Jersey Mom (4/5)

PRAISE FOR NAPPILY MARRIED:

"Thomas pulls off a followup every bit as engrossing as its predecessors."--Essence magazine
"Thomas keeps the action flowing with short chapters, well-orchestrated subplots, steamy sex and root-forable characters." --Publishers Weekly
"...Fiction with a feminine take on balancing family and career with witty dialogue and endearing characters."--Spirit (Southwest Airlines) Magazine
"'Wow' is what you say when something makes you laugh, cry and tell your friends about it. This is a definite "wow" book." Romantic Times

Great Comeback!!5
Nappily in Bloom great series comeback, I really enjoyed reading all of her series!!! can't wait for the sequel

Really Good Follow Up!5
This is a really good follow up in the Nappily series. Venus and Jake are seemingly content and enjoying a more quiet life in Atlanta raising Mya when Jake's past legal troubles resurface. So with the help of his old friend Legend, Jake tries to put the past to rest once and for all. Venus is moving past the pain of her miscarriage and has recently opened "In Bloom" a flower shop. She signs on as wedding coordinator for Televangelist Trevelle Doval's daughter Keisha's wedding. Can she mediate peace between drama queen Trevelle and adoptive mom Judge Hawkins? All while trying to stay safe and sane? Doubtful! Lots of twists and turns and surprises. I really enjoyed the story and am looking forward to the next installment.

This book is Blooming!4
Ok, I must admit. I picked up this book because I was fresh off a righteous high after seeing Chris Rocks movie, "Good Hair". I wanted to give some black person money with natural hair. :)
I am soooooooooo glad I did.

I have not read the first three books in the series but I was still able to grasp the character driven and suspenseful plot and I fell in love with Venus, Jake and Mya.

I hate when reviewers give away to much of the storyline so I won't. I will say that I will definitely pick up the first three books because Trisha Thomas has made a fan out of me!
