Relic

Counterfeiting and stolen goods cases end up entangling a local sheriff and a customs agent out in the field and in the sheets.

Anne Hagan starts “The Morelville Mysteries” series with Relic and the introduction of customs agent Dana Rossi and temporary Sheriff Mel Crane. Both characters have a lot in common as they are both on the trail of criminals, Rossi is chasing down a shipment of stolen goods that is coming in and Crane is on the trail of counterfeit money. From the moment they meet sparks fly and not only in words but the in sexual chemistry. Hagan gives them electricity right from the beginning, but as all good lawmen do, they put the job first. As we tail two separate cases, these two lawmen keep crossing paths and get more involved with each other than either is prepared for as they both have romantic pasts to put behind them. Hagan knows her couple though and there is nothing like a little excitement and danger to put those endorphins to work and we get to enjoy the after effects.

The mysteries are solid and the result is not rushed or too outlandish to be believed. Rossi and Crane make sense as a couple and their chemistry is good and could really work for them in future novels (at least I hope so, I am always a sucker for a happy ending). There is just a enough sex to satisfy the romantic, but not too much to distract the mystery fan. I did not want to put the mystery down and this is a good sign, cannot wait to read the next one and you will feel the same way. Word of advice: read this on a weekend. (laugh)
