Deadly Bonds

The Mindhunters, Book Three



Life tore them apart. Death is about to bring them together again.


After his wife’s death, Dr. Holt Patterson threw himself into his work as a criminal profiler. Catching killers was something he had some control over while the rest of his life imploded. Unfortunately, his work ethic hurt his relationship with his young son, Theo. Torn between making the world a safer place for his son and learning how to balance family with his life’s mission, Holt is barely keeping his head above water.


Sara Burns, the director at the prestigious academy Theo attends, once loved Holt Patterson, but he married her best friend. A decade later, Sara channels her energy and focus into the school, its students, and helping Theo through a tough time. But when Holt enters her orbit again, she realizes her feelings for him weren’t gone, they’d just gone dormant.


When a stalker develops an interest in Sara, Holt is determined to protect her, and old emotions spark to life. Can they get past their history and survive the present to build a future together?
