Then, out of the blue, a startlingly handsome man named Packard peers into Justine&#8217;s soul and invites her to join his private crime-fighting team. It&#8217;s a once-in-a-lifetime deal. With a little of Packard&#8217;s hands-on training, Justine can weaponize her neurosis, turning it outward on Midcity&#8217;s worst criminals, and finally get the freedom from fear she&#8217;s always craved. End of problem.<\/p>\n<p>Or is it? In Midcity, a dashing police chief is fighting a unique breed of outlaw with more than human powers. And while Justine&#8217;s first missions, including one against a nymphomaniac husband-killer, are thrilling successes, there is more to Packard than meets the eye. Soon, while battling her attraction to two very different men, Justine is plunging deeper into a world of wizardry, eroticism, and cosmic secrets. With Packard&#8217;s help, Justine has freed herself from her madness &#8211; only to discover a reality more frightening than anyone&#8217;s worst fears.<\/p>\n<p><b>Buy From:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Em0QFA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/buy-amazon-button.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/34v1N91\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/buy-amazon_in.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>\t<b>Rating: <\/b> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_Golden.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_White.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suramya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Star_White.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t<b>Review:<\/b>Mind Games is a book with a very different take on superpowers and how people use them. In the normal superhero books the hero\/heroine has a power that they use for good, and its something like the ability to create fire or strength etc etc.. In Mind Games the heroes are people with serious phobia&#8217;s or addictions that they can channel into other people to punish them.<\/p>\n<p>In Justine&#8217;s case, she is a hypochondriac who is convinced that she is about to die any second due to a burst blood vessel in her brain. When approached by Packard to join a private crime fighting team she initially declines but later joins them.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the book Crane takes the normal superhero tales and gives them her unique twist. I really enjoyed this book and have added her name to the list of authors that I follow. Hopefully her next book will be as good.<\/p>\n<p>The book is a light hearted read but not completely without seriousness. This keeps the book from becoming a silly tale into something that you want to read from the start to the finish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mind Games (Justine Jones Book 01) by Carolyn Crane Description: JUSTINE KNOWS SHE&#8217;S GOING TO DIE.
