Summary
Profiling criminals had not always been Evelyn's dream. The path she had envisioned since early childhood consisted of intellectual discussions of controversial artistic theories and late, caffeinated nights spent procrastinating overdue art pieces.
And then her mother died.
At least one part of her dream had come to fruition—she was completely dependent on coffee.When accepted into the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, Evelyn finds she may not be as well-suited for the position as she believed herself to be, especially when a certain intellectual genius makes it his life's mission to see her fail.

Summary
Spencer Reid never expected to be annoyed by a former art student.
He'd worked alongside trained soldiers, criminal masterminds, and narcissists with god complexes—yet none had ever matched his ability to recite facts, challenge theories, or derail his thoughts mid-sentence quite like the newest addition to the BAU.
She was underqualified, overstimulated, and, somehow, a step ahead of him.
He didn't like her. (He tells himself that often.)But as cases grow darker and the line between intellect and instinct begins to blur, Spencer finds that the most dangerous thing in the room isn't the killer they're interrogating—it's the woman in the seat beside him. The one with haunted eyes, caffeinated comebacks, and a history that echoes far too loudly in his own mind.
And unfortunately for him, there's no profiling manual for this.**Spencer's POV from ECE**
