Janet Evanovich, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Stephanie Plum series, teams up with Emmy-winning writer Phoef Sutton for a brand-new series of mysteries featuring Emerson Knight and Riley Moon, a dynamic duo with instant and undeniable chemistry.Įmerson Knight is introverted, eccentric, and has little to no sense of social etiquette. I received a Digital Review Copy from the Publisher. I give Curious Minds 4 Stars out of 5 and a Big Thumbs Up! I think that Janet Evanovich and Phoef Sutton have another winner.
The characters were fun and the action was fast. They have some of that classic Evanovich heat going on between them too, but we have to wait until the next book to really see where that goes.Ĭurious Minds had me engaged. Riley is a fiery redhead from Texas and once she lets loose, you better not be in her way.īut Emerson and Riley work well together. She is nearly the exact opposite of Lizzy. I’m not saying that the characters are much alike, just that I get the same feeling.Įmerson Knight doesn’t have any of the same mystical powers that Diesel has, but, then again, there might be a little something going on there, and Riley Moon is not anything like Lizzy. I got the same vibe from this book as I had when I read some of the Lizzy and Diesel books. Curious Minds is the beginning of what promises to be another fun one. I have enjoyed reading all of their collaborative series. (Aug.Janet Evanovich and Phoef Sutton make a good writing team.
Making the trip as perilous as possible are a variety of deadly diversions, chief among them being Hans’s employee Edward Rollo, an unstoppable sadistic torturer-killer whose soft, satiny threats are not to be ignored. To thwart the evil Grunwalds, Knight and Moon embark on a gold hunt from the nation’s capital to the Federal Reserve vaults in Manhattan and eventually to a confrontation at Nevada’s mysterious Area 51. The brothers sound like members of the same clan, but King adds distinctions for each. This odd couple is all that stands in the way of the elite, criminally unscrupulous Grunwald family’s attempt to corner the world gold market and destroy all other forms of currency. Emerson Knight, the handsome, fabulously wealthy, annoyingly eccentric bank client whom Riley is assigned to babysit, speaks with a properly aristocratic, dogmatic belief in his brilliance, faltering only when he is criticized for a lack of social skills. Her Riley Moon, a brilliant and ambitious junior analyst at superbank Blane-Grunwald, is youthful and at turns cautious, curious, and sarcastic, with more than a hint of her small-town Texas origin. In the audio edition of this series kickoff by Evanovich and Sutton (coauthors of 2015’s Wicked Charms), actress King animates an intriguing cast of characters, beginning with the comedy thriller’s two uniquely mismatched protagonists.
