After you create the hosted zone for jthinkws.com. Go to Record sets, there will be an entry for type NS. You will need to copy these name servers endpoints and update it in the DNS provider (fasthosts) for the domain jthinkws.com

You need to update the nameserver records on fasthost to match the ones gives from Route53. When I run "dig jthinkws.com any" in my bash shell I get the following responds:

The NS records must be AWS records for Route53 to work. Check out this getting started guide.

Yes you need use the Amazon Ones for name servers; That is the connection you would establish with your domain name and Route53.
