Decoding the Heart (Profiling the Heart, #1)

FIRST IN A NEW EDGE-OF-YOUR-SEAT SERIES! Matthew Grant, a behavioral analyst with the FBI, is used to traveling the country to catch the people terrorizing it, so going to a place like Cove Creek, Iowa, is nothing he hasn‘t done before. He and his team figure this would be an easy-to-solve case. Everything seems pretty cut and dry. However, once on the ground, they learn the case is anything but. Stymied at every turn, Matthew grows frustrated. The only positive in this whole mess is the attractive woman who works the front desk at the small hotel where they‘re staying. Rebecca Clarke thought becoming a widow and a single mother, thus forcing her to move into her parents‘ hotel, would be the worst thing that could happen to her. She was very wrong. Someone is killing the men in her town, men she grew up with and considers friends. The FBI is trying to catch them and are taking up residence in her family‘s little bed-and-breakfast. It doesn‘t hurt that one of the agents is very attractive, and very kind to her and her son, though. But it‘s too soon to be ready to date, right? As Matthew and Rebecca grow closer, unable to fight their mutual attraction, the serial killer escalates. As the murders move closer and closer to Rebecca‘s inner circle, can Matthew and his team work fast enough to catch the person terrorizing her town? Fans of Karen Rose, Lisa Jackson, and Brenda Novak will enjoy Stephanie R. Caffrey.
