She reads minds for a living. He's the one man she can't decode. Cleo Ambrosia's ability to read people has made her indispensable to New York's power players. Known as a human lie detector, she has built her career on perception, control, and never being caught off guard. A former figure skating prodigy turned executive coach, Cleo is sharp, strategic, and practiced at staying composed. Until she meets Dillon Whelan. Hired to advise his cutting-edge tech firm, Cleo encounters the one client who refuses to fit her instincts. Dillon built his success on logic, precision, and systems. He challenges her conclusions, questions her assumptions, and meets her insight with dry humor and careful restraint. As professional lines blur and trust deepens, guarded attraction turns into something neither of them planned. Their boardroom exchanges spark with tension and wit, each conversation pushing a little too close to the truth. Drawn from late nights in New York to quieter moments in York, England, they are forced to confront what ambition has protected them from, and what it has cost. Mind Reader is a clean, emotionally rich, slow-burn contemporary workplace romance about perception, ambition, and the courage it takes to let yourself be seen.
