Cynthia and Dan: Cyber War is a book about technology, terrorism, and romance written by Dorothy May Mercer. Cynthia is an independent, intelligent woman who works for a private investigative firm alongside her brother Glenn. Her love for her job and her country drives her to expose those behind terrorist sects that recruit young people all over the world for their organization. She named the mission "Cyber War."

Cynthia had a date with her longtime lover, Dan, after work. Dan gave her a distress call to take cover as she was making her way to the event, warning that a drone had likely struck the White House. She encountered an unknown man named Sky who offered to guide her home through the chaotic traffic so she could figure out what was going on. She and Sky developed feelings for each other after meeting that night, endangering her relationship with Dan. What will be Dan's reaction if he finds out? What happens to Sky, and how did they both end? Get the book and find out.

Both the author's writing style and the story's plot appealed to me. I had no trouble reading the book or comprehending the characters, even though it is part of the McBride Romance Suspense series.

The book's unpredictable nature was another aspect I enjoyed. Once you think you know what will happen next, the author changes the perspective and keeps you turning the pages. For example, when Cynthia's employees couldn't discover anything on Sky, I had a different idea of who he might be in my mind. But when his personality was revealed, I was shocked since I had the wrong impression of him. I also appreciated how distinct and well-developed each character was in the novel. The friendship between Tim, Garth, and Glenn and their accomplishments were interesting to read about.

Unfortunately, I can't say I agree with everything in the book; the narrative seems unrealistic when Cynthia goes home with Sky knowing what is at stake and how sensitive her position is. Also, Dan was not given full attention in the book; based on the title, the book should focus primarily on Cynthia and Dan, with other characters following. For these reasons, I give this book four out of five stars.
 
There were no errors identified in the book, which indicates excellent editing. In my opinion, adults, technology students, and military men who are not offended by foul language or sexual content in a novel should read this book. Reading this amazing masterpiece will also be enjoyable for fans of fiction and romance novels.

The book's use of multiple plot threads adds an extra layer of intrigue to the story. The motivations behind terrorist activities is a fascinating aspect of the story. The concept of family loyalty is a poignant aspect of the story.

The role of technology in modern-day espionage adds an extra layer of intrigue to the story. The book's exploration of the impact of terrorism on society and individuals is a thought-provoking aspect of the story.

Cynthia and Dan is such a great fiction book. Am curious to see how it goes with Cynthia and Sky, will this meeting be a test to their relationship. The cyber attack is also another storyline, I would like to see how it goes. Congratulations on the review!

[David Offdavis]

The sacrifices that must be made in the name of national security is thought-provoking and adds an extra layer of complexity to the story. The sibling dynamic between Cynthia and Glenn adds an emotional resonance to the story.

[Max Tiffany]

Cynthia is a courageous woman despite her love life not being too estimable. She was in a secret relationship with Sky while dating Dan. Good, her love life didn't affect her fight against cybercrime.
