I write the kind of books that make you check your locks before bed and leave the lights on just in case.
I'm Kate Allenton, an author who lives in the space where paranormal suspense, supernatural thrillers, and edge of your seat crime fiction collide. My stories range from psychics and reapers in small towns that look perfectly normal until they absolutely aren't, to gripping FBI thrillers where the monsters are all too human.
You'll find me writing the Lost Souls Society series, where death is just the beginning of the mystery, and the Psychic Oversight series, where seeing the future doesn't always mean you can change it.
With over 80 books published, I've spent more than a decade perfecting the art of the cliffhanger ending and the 2 AM "just one more chapter" problem.
The Bennett family all have a Talent, well maybe two if you consider being Danger Magnets a talent. A close knit family strong and caring for everyone important to them. Lighter reading as they are not full length novels, but I am really enjoying that fact as so many authors and publishers lately seem to think that it is the number of pages not the content which counts and it is not. So to have a decent read that is not overly drawn out unnecessarily is awesome.
As the eldest of the Bennett sisters, Claire has always been the nurturing one. When some funds for her charitable foundation go missing, Butch, her friend and security expert is drafted to help. That’s not the only thing he wants to help her with...
This is a quick read, a romantic suspense that is the third in a series, where there is an ongoing background story, but each book is standalone. Claire is an older heroine at 39, and not at all helpless, despite her nurturing nature. The mystery she is faced with, actually leads deeper into the past, in a way that will affect the entire family. Claire and her siblings all have ‘gifts’ that help, but they’re really incidental to the story, and so provide only slight paranormal overtones.
Those who enjoy romantic or paranormal suspense will enjoy this series.
Claire is the oldest of the sisters, and took care of them when their mother died. Now she does fundraisers for charity. Someone stole some of the fundraiser money. Butch her bodyguard helps her look at the security tapes. All the sisters and security husbands and cop brother put their heads together to find the culprit.
This book carries on with the Bennett family the love in each Sisters life. Special gifts helps to save the life of each sister and the passwords that help them to gauge the degree of danger in their lives
Mind Play is the third book in the Bennett Sisters series written by author Kate Allenton. I really enjoy these stories. Good balance of suspense, romance, and paranormal.
I think this is my favorite so far. And I must say, I have always loved Butch and even more so after this book. I love Kate Allenton and love how these books are ones I can not put now down!
