   The male lead is a police captain, completely non-greasy and not at all domineering. The only difference between him and a real-life detective might be his good looks, but it's not overemphasized; his main job is solving cases. The romance between the male and female leads develops naturally and effortlessly—it's not the kind where the male lead falls for her at first sight and then pursues her; it's all about feelings growing over time. It's really sweet!!! The romance doesn't interfere with solving cases at all; the pacing is fast but the cases aren't rushed. Cases come one after another, and there are many foreshadowing elements.

[This author has many detective novels; they can be grouped together into a series, all somewhat connected to the previous ones, but not many. [Thumbs up]]
