On May 15, 1975, fifteen-year-old Ginny Lemon is abducted from a convenience store in Fort Lauderdale by a member of one of the most notorious and brutal motorcycle gangs in South Florida.
From that moment on, her life is forever changed. She gets a new name, a new identity and a new life in the midst of the gang’s base on the edge of the Florida Everglades—a frightening, rough and violent world much like the swamps themselves, where everyone has an alias and loyalty is tantamount to survival.
And at the center of it all is the gang’s leader, Grizz: massive, ruggedly handsome, terrifying and somehow, when it comes to Ginny, tender. She becomes his obsession and the one true love of his life.
So begins a tale of emotional obsession and manipulation, of a young woman ripped from everything she knows and forced to lean on the one person who provides attention, affection and care: her captor. Precocious and intelligent, but still very much a teenager, Ginny struggles to adapt to her existence, initially fighting and then coming to terms with her captivity.
Will she be rescued? Will she escape? Will she get out alive—or get out at all? Part psychological thriller, part coming-of-age novel, filled with mystery, romance and unexpected turns, Nine Minutes takes readers into the world of one motorcycle gang and inside the heart of a young girl, whose abduction brought about its fall.
My opinion:
May 5th 1975, the day that Gin's life would change forever. It started like every other normal day,then she met an older guy while she was reading, he seemed
interesting to her. When he offered her a ride home and she accepted was the moment she was abducted by him. When she realised what happened she was scared. The guy told her that soon she'd meet her new family. Gin was a thank you gift to a big bad biker, Grizz.Every single day Kit (Gin's new name) was looking for a way to escape. One night she saw another side of Grizz, the big mean guy had feelings too. Many days later Kit learned that her abduction was planned by Grizz. If she was scared before now she was terrified. Kit was developing feelings for Grizz but after a while she knew that she was falling for
someone else, and that wasn't good for her or him. One good thing that happened to her while she was there was that she made a true friend,Sarah Jo. After a year being with Grizz she was getting used to that life, it was definitely better than the life with her parents.Being Grizz's wife had unwanted effects.
When her friend Moe died Kit started question everything.The only way for her to survive and be happy was to just stay away from everything, pretending that
some things never happened.And then the day came where everything changed,Grizz was in jail for abducting her.She tried to help him because she loved him. In the end Grizz decided and planned what would happen to him.
Wow just wow... I don't think i'll ever forget this book. The most interesting plot i've ever read. It's a novel/psychological thriller with mystery and romance. No love scenes. It's intense, dark,sick, shocking and has many twists.
In this book we see a girl being abducted and how she falls in love with her captor and another man. This isn't a regular biker story, it doesn't show their
lifestyle just that they are dangerous people. I was surprised by the development of the story and i would have never guessed the end. I was sad with Grizz's end, i loved seeing him with Gin, he was so happy with her and he loved her so much. Can't wait for the next book.
