Bernard Marks and Martha Alford met by chance. No real reason for it, just a series of fluky coincidences. The odds were long that they would hit it off. That wasn’t in the cards they’d been dealt at birth. “It’ll never last,” people whispered after they got engaged. “Poor probability of success” was the general consensus when they married. But Bernie and Martha ignored the naysayers. Gamblers in love, they rolled the dice.

A poignant story about love and loss
Revisado: 05-01-25
Betting on Bernie is a real life love story of a strong marriage with all its ups and downs, including the sacrifices partners must make for it to work and last. As a woman, I could relate to the accommodations the author had to make in her career and life, as she put the marriage first. These two strong, talented and independent people loved each other deeply but sometimes struggled to keep the partnership intact. The final chapter of their life together, including illness and heartbreak, was told beautifully by the author. I would definitely recommend this book.
