ⓘ About Fliss Chester
Before writing her two cozy crime series, she wrote these flirty and fun romance stories, the type of thing which might make your mom blush. Not hers however, since it was her mom that always encouraged her to be ‘anything you want, so long as it ain’t dull’. Hopefully her readers are going to attest to the fact that whether it is death by cyanide or a smooch in a hot tub, there is nothing that’s dull about Fliss’s books. “Snowballs” is the first novel in the “French Escapes” series and was released in 2018. Join old university friends Sally, Angus, Hugo, Bertie, Max, and Jenna while they set off for this wintry weekend of fondue, fun, and frivolity on the glamorous Val d’Argent. Drinking, flirting, and dancing are on the agenda. As is doing a bit of skiing.
