I just finished reading the first chapter to a book called Mind Games. It seems like it's going to be a lot like Scent of Shadows with the exception that it's written in the present tense. It took a little getting used to that but... It's got a nutzo heroine so far. The hot mysterious guy who's gonna do something for her. The bf. I'm sure it'll be it's own story but it seems to run along the same vein..sounds like there will even be a crime fighting group in here. So if anyone is interested in joining me that would be awesome.

Oh, no prob. Vicki recommended that book months ago. I really liked it too. Very creative. I picked it up and got it autographed when I met Carolyn at RT. ;D

I loved this book so much I chased her down and offered a cover quote along with my second born. She's really talented and the story is extremely original and well crafted.
Enjoy the read - I can't wait for her next!

I got Vicki pregnant at RT. She's expecting. Yes, the story is very original and well written. I wonder where I've seen THAT before. It had the ring of Vicki's work in that it's an idea I'd never seen before and it's so beautifully written. I couldn't put it down. Lots of twists. Read it now and love it always. I, too, can't wait for her next.

I liked it since it has some medical facts in it...really interesting and very twisted world she has wrought. And Carolyn is a fun person, too.

I'm so sorry Debi. I should've known. It's just not like you. *hugs* Last time you were making typos, it was a new med, I think. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your friend.

sorry about the news, even though this is really late. i need to DL java so I can get into these chats with you.
BUT REALLY what I came here to talk about is this book. Mind Games.... I FINALLY FINISHED IT (I added 4 other books to mydaily rotation. I don't know why I did that.) The end of the book scratched a secret part of my brain and did funny things to my body. So yeah, I pretty much really liked it. Loved it. Can't wait for the next book...

You know, I've never read any of her books and I feel really guilty about that. She loaned me her extra pair of glasses at RT and I feel like I should make it up to her somehow. Which ones do I start with?

^That's great. I can't wait for the second one. She's one of those "un-put-down-able" authors.
I'm so excited to see what's next.
