I have long been a Nancy Mehl fan, and this new book, Mind Games--first in the Kaely Quinn, Profiler, Series—did not disappoint. Kaely is quirky, unusual, and a new Christian. I love that she’s okay with who she is and how she processes things even though others see her as something of an anomaly.

While this book is classified as Romantic Suspense, I would say it’s pretty low on the romance but topnotch on the suspense. I’m awful at figuring out the bad guy, and I definitely didn’t get the right answer with this book. No spoilers here, so that’s all I’ll say about that.

The end was satisfying and, as far as I know (cuz I don’t always remember everything I read), all of the loose ends were tied up nicely. I can’t wait to read the next one.

Rating: 5/5 stars

Mind Games

Kaely Quinn’s talents as an FBI behavior analyst are impossible to ignore, no matter how unorthodox her methods. But when a reporter outs her as the daughter of an infamous serial killer, she’s demoted to field agent and transferred to St. Louis.

When the same reporter who ruined her career claims to have received an anonymous poem predicting a string of murders, ending with Kaely’s, the reporter’s ulterior motives bring his claim into question. But when a body is found that fits the poem’s predictions, the threat is undeniable, and the FBI sends Special Agent Noah Hunter to St. Louis. 

Initially resentful of the assignment, Noah is surprised at how quickly his respect for Kaely grows, despite her oddities. But with a brazen serial killer who breaks all the normal patterns on the loose, Noah and Kaely are tested to their limits to catch the murderer before anyone else–including Kaely herself–is killed.
