Book Review:
For fans of the couple Fiona and Nathan, this one's a super thrilling joy ride! Having gotten married towards the end of their Bon Voyage to Murder adventure (two books earlier), Fiona and Nathan decide to celebrate the union to turn the low-key ceremony into a proper wedding with their families. But where Fiona and Nathan are present, mysteries always seem to follow! With just less than a week to go for the wedding, they are both slammed with the news of a murder that leaves everyone stumped. With many suspects lined up, Fiona and Nathan let their sleuthing instincts take over, to give us a fun-filled, funny, pacy, and racy thriller. This book turned out to be a treat to read, and my thanks to McDonald, the publishers McWriter Books, and Lauren of iRead BT for gifting me with a copy of this book.
Meet the Author:
For twenty-six years C.S. McDonald’s life whirled around a song and a dance. Classically trained at Pittsburgh Ballet Theater School, The Pittsburgh Dance Alloy, and many others, she became a professional dancer and choreographer. During that time, she choreographed many musicals and an opera for the Pittsburgh Savoyards. In 2011 she retired from her dance career to write. Under her real name, Cindy McDonald, she writes murder-suspense and romantic suspense novels. In 2014 she added the pen name, C.S. McDonald, to write children’s books for her grandchildren. In 2016 she added the Fiona Quinn Mysteries to that expansion. She decided to write the cozy mystery series that everyone, including teens and tweens, can read and enjoy. Presently, the Fiona Quinn Mysteries includes nine books with a tenth slated for 2021. The books are also available on audio, narrated by Maren Swenson Waxenberg.
Cindy’s newest venture is The Owl’s Nest Mysteries. Once again, she has set her cozy mystery in Pittsburgh and the female protagonist, Alexa Owl, is much different from Fiona Quinn. The Owl’s Nest Mysteries has a little grit, a little time travel, a little romance, and a whole lot of cozy!
Ms. McDonald resides on her Thoroughbred farm known as Fly by Night Stables near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with her husband, Bill, and her poorly behaved Cocker Spaniel, Allister.
