Author, your writing is good, and the two characters are well-developed. The key issue is that the book's introduction mentions a romantic relationship between the two, but after reading nearly 40 chapters, the romance is pitifully little. Could you please balance the romance with the crime-solving aspect? Don't just focus on the cases; the lack of romance is causing some readers to lose patience.
