Beauty is a weapon
Dior or Die, the debut novel from Laura Akers, is the first in a series featuring protagonist Davia Glenn, the first female paramilitary operative in an elite fighting unit, who is suddenly thrust into the world of the super-rich. Davia is both badass and beautiful, so attracts all kinds of attention - from potential boyfriends to would-be assassins.
Y’all see me as this blonde, twenty-something fighter who can rig explosives, handle any firearm, best big dudes in hand-to-hand combat, all while wearing heels and a sequined dress, right?
Okay, how about as the debonair playboy from the north of England who likes fast cars, has an enormous villa in Southern California, and has an English butler (who may secretly be a spy)?
In the audiobook, of course, I get to be all these people - German assassin, Syrian terrorist, French fashionista, California girl-scout-cum-interior-decorator, and beefy paramilitary dude. Dior or Die is a fun adventure with a little thrill, a little romance, a little mystery, and a great sense of humor.
