Claudia Burney's debut novel is outstanding. Though officially in the murder category, it's a unique blend of romance, chick-lit, mystery and women's fiction.The characters are three dimensional, all with their own intriguing backstory that comes to light naturally within the story.To say this is sassy would be an understatement. It is honest. It is fresh. It is funny and satisfying. I LOVED this book. The plot was great. The romance was hot. And the writing stellar.I HIGHLY recommend Murder, Mayhem & a Fine Man to those who like a little mystery with their romance. An amazing first novel.Claudia Mair Burney has got it going on!
Great book. The review is absolutely accurate. A friend of mine who has fought off cultish activity in her family agrees that this is not only entertaining, but vitally important.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Mair!
Thanks, Eric. I read your review on Amazon as well. More eloquent than mine but hopefully at least it comes through that I thought it was excellent.
