Reviews for Nick of Time

[sheriawilkinson · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Nick of Time: A Nick Donahue Adventure by Cathi Stoler

Nick Donahue is an American Living in London. He lives fast, loves to gamble and loves the ladies. When a Beautiful woman is in need of help, Nick is there. He gets kidnapped and dumped in Prague, calls his (Banker) brother, Alex in Zurich for help. He soon finds his brother is in need of some help as well.

A fun fast paced mystery. Nick is likable , despite his wild life style and gambling addiction. Alex is likable as well. They find themselves in dangerous situations and anger many shady people.

The plot is original,fun, has plenty of action, adventure, romance and a splash of humor. I found Nick of Time: A Nick Donahue Adventure an enjoyable read and feel those who love mystery/suspense will enjoy it as well.
