Description
Cassidy Evans is the blueprint. As a Criminal Psychologist, Cassidy is a savant. She spent years solving groundbreaking cases by shifting through the minds and behaviors of those driven by the darkness that controls them. After years of dedicated field work, Cassidy decides to retire and share her expertise of killers’ mentalities as a novelist.
As a published author, she’s now happily married and spends most of her time traveling the world and sharing with others how to understand the twisted minds that drive bad behaviors. Unfortunately, with all of the knowledge that Cassidy is armed with, she somehow overlooks the lies of the person closest to her. When she tags along to a crime scene with and old colleague, Cassidy is shocked to discover that the victim is her husband. If that’s not enough to send her world spiraling, she also finds out that the identity of the murdered victim, doesn’t match the name on their marriage license.
Things quickly escalate when Cassidy becomes the main suspect. Not knowing the man she is married to is the least of Cassidy’s problems. Everyone believes she is a murderer, and none more than the lead detective on the case¾Nathanial Davis. He is determined to find the truth while proving to the world that Cassidy isn’t who she claims to be. In doing so, he decides to keep Cassidy close while digging through her past to uncover all of her untold truths.
While she’s hiding secrets that could totally destroy the world she spent years building, Cassidy learns that things are never what they seem. With such an intricate familiarity of seeing through lies, how is it that Cassidy is happily married to a man who she loves and adores, but doesn’t truly know? Suddenly, losing her career is far less important than maintaining her freedom. In the end, she may lose both.

Thank you so much to Black Odessey Media and the Author for the Arc copy. I really enjoyed this thriller. I had an idea of how it would end and lets just say this book is not as predictable as you think. I appreciate the touches of romance which I believe helped elevate the story and form a deeper connection to the main characters. I love the way the ending was laid out and how everyone found out the truth. So Bold and intriguing!! Great work and would recommend this and encourage reads to grab their copy when it releases.

This book had me hooked from the start, and I couldn't tear myself away! Cassidy Evans is seriously the coolest character ever. I mean, she's a criminal psychologist turned novelist? How epic is that? But when her own husband turns up dead, and she's the prime suspect? Talk about a jaw-dropping twist!
The suspense in this book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Every time I thought I had it all figured out, Mills threw in another curveball that left me reeling. And Cassidy's romance with Detective Nathaniel Davis is so intense! I love their relationship!
But what really blew my mind was how the story kept me guessing until the very end. There were so many twists and turns, I couldn't predict what would happen next. And Mills' writing style? Absolutely flawless!
"Innocent Intent" is a must-read for thriller lovers. It's fast-paced, action-packed, and has a romance that'll make your heart race. I couldn't put it down, and I'm dying to read more from K.C. Mills!

This book was masterfully written by K.C. Mills! The character and story development, as well as the final plot twist, were all flawless. I was curious to see how this author would handle a thriller because I've read other books by her, and she did an amazing job. The book really captured my attention from the first page. I was wondering how Cassidy would fare in the end because the deck was stacked against her. Though mysterious at first, Detective Davis eventually showed himself deserving of my admiration. A page-turner, Innocent Intent was masterfully written. Only because I had to work did I finish the book in two days. I hope to read more thrillers written by this author in the future. Bravo, K.C. Mills!
