Morgan Brice was the first M/M romance author I ever read, and her Witchbane series was the start of my love of M/M romances and I have been hooked ever since. I have read and own everything she has written in this persona...all the "Badlands", "Witchbane" and "Treasure Trail" series, so needless to say I was excited to see a new series appear. So far there is only 2 books in the "Treasure Trail" series, so I am sincerely hoping that there will be more than 2 books in this one. Our new characters are Owen Sharps and Calvin Springfield who meet for the first time on a train. Each unknown to the other, they find that they feel the same attraction toward who they later find turns out to be their new "Supernatural Secret Service" partner. Unfortunately, the proprieties of the day, 1887, mean it would be both improper and dangerous to act on their attractions. I wondered since they were going to facing life and death, if it would really have been so bad? Those same rules, make it hard to determine a person’s orientation, so they spent the majority of the book testing their theories about each other and being wrong. They gave "Don't ask...don't tell" a whole new meaning. The book is listed as a historical paranormal series, which is not a new theme for Morgan Brice as all her series have had hot guys with at least one having paranormal abilities. In this series both partners have different abilities, that no matter the situation, they are covered and at least one of them will live on...at least for now. Being the first, the story sets the tone and introduces the "ground crew". As I said...I have enjoyed several series by this author, and this series looks to be very promising. We get to see the viewpoints of both Owen and Calvin as the chapters alternate. They are going to be perfect partners both in bed and on the job. Unlike modern times, they can’t simply give a nudge and a nod in the local nightclub. Back then, society’s rules kept many aspects of life behind tight lips. So, the men must navigate the subtext of exchanges. The groundwork for the series has been beautifully accomplished...the cast of players are superb, and I so look forward to reading further books in this series, which will hopefully include more paranormal and a lot more romance between Calvin and Owen.
