Peril for Your Thoughts — Kari Lee Townsend

Kalli always imagined life would be easier if she could just read people's minds. But when a freak accident gives her such a gift, her life becomes anything but easy, especially after her best friend is accused of murder…

Kalli's a shy, slightly OCD, mind-reading fashion designer with a prissy calico cat and hand sanitizer always at the ready. Nik's a loud and boisterous half-Greek detective with a big, sloppy St. Bernard and a devil-may-care attitude. In other words, Kalliope Ballas and Nikos Stevens are not a good match, despite the opinions of Kalli's overbearing mother and the rest of her tight-knit adoptive Greek family.

So when a murder investigation brings the mismatched pair together and Kalli must use her newfound ability to clear her best friend's name, how can she explain how she knows what she knows without confessing her mind-reading ability to Nik?
