I love a cop partners-mystery-romance story, and this checks all my boxes. It's the first in the series featuring FBI Agent Rain and Brickle Bay PD Detective Danny. Years ago, their relationship imploded when Rain chose a job over Danny. Now drawn back to his hometown, he has to work with Danny again to solve a cold case. Oh yeah, and Danny can see and talk to ghosts. As soon as they are back in proximity to each other, they both long for a way to get a second chance to make it work. The have to work through serious trust issues and one gigantic secret. This is a medium level angst book for me, and I thought their chemistry and banter was good. The characters did get put through a lot but it made the ending that more poignant. The narration was also excellent.
