NEW YORK -- Author Jon McDonald is well-known for his fun and captivating satirical novels which fans have compared with those written by David Baldacci and James Patterson. ‘Divas Never Flinch’, which is recommended as a ‘Comedy of Manners’, charms its readers with compelling characters, fast-paced action, and a delightful story. It is a light, enjoyable read, but at the same time it is also a strong social satire.
Sonora Livingston-Bundt and Connye Andreatos are two rich, fancy divas who live in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and constantly struggle to outdo each other. Only one of them can become the “Queen” of Santa Fe, and this can be decided by the luxurious parties they throw and the involvement they show in the city’s charitable activities and artistic institutions. They will stop at nothing to impress and seduce their audience. Unsurprisingly, their battle causes hilarious situations that will make readers laugh out loud.
Sonora’s and Connye’s fight for supremacy takes a different turn when Amanda Beor-Bink comes in town. She’s a world-class fashion designer, and she has the celebrity, money and influence to outdo both Sonora and Connye. Of course, the two divas cannot allow Amanda to take the crown of ‘Queen of Santa Fe’, so they have to come up with a plan to drive her away. The battle for power, fame, and admiration has never been so fierce.
Amazon customers have praised Jon McDonald’s book in their reviews. One reviewer says: ‘It’s a fizzing frolic through a variety of sumptuous social soirees with characters who can shock you with a word or a look.’
