Peacemaker Peacemaker by Morgan Brice

📘Book Info
Secret agents, forbidden love, danger, and magic!

Supernatural Secret Service agents Owen Sharps and Calvin Springfield meet on the train to their new assignment in St. Louis, and sparks fly between them. But it's 1897, and they need to be very careful—falling in love can be dangerous for men like them.

It's their first case together, investigating mysterious disappearances—including the two agents who preceded them. Grim evidence leads them to look for a darker purpose. Old ghosts haunt the railroad line, zombie rise, signs point to ritual sacrifice, and they suspect someone is trying to open the gates of hell.

Can Calvin and Owen stop the mayhem, thwart the vampires, and find true love, or will everything go up in smoke?

Peacemaker is a high-stakes steampunk MM romance thrill ride filled with found family, paranormal Pinkertons, intrepid reporters, mysterious disappearances, nefarious land brokers, hellhounds, zombies, vengeful spirits, dark spells, absinthe magic, a ruthless vampire railroad baron and a love that won't be denied.

Before Colt and Winchester, there was Sharps & Springfield!

Peacemaker is the first book in the new Sharps & Springfield series.

💭Our Thoughts
This is the first book in Brice's new historical/steampunk MM series
It was packed with mystery, action, and a light dose of romance -
very secondary to the overall storyline- that kept me looking for things to do so I could find out who was behind the unalivings.
John Solo did a solid job of narrating and bringing the cast to life

Calvin and Owen were sent undercover to figure out who or what was taking out citizens
Could it be the railroad people?
Could it be prospective business owners?
The railroad did mean big business for small towns
Or could it be something more nefarious?

Enjoyed the worldbuilding. A great job of transporting us back in time.
The mystery kept me guessing from beginning to end. So many wonderful villains and possibilities. There were all kinds of misleading clues and not-so-suspectable suspects. Each time I thought I had an inkling I turned a few pages and found that I was wrong.
A lot of small-minded folks as well as some very greedy ones

Our lead characters had that insta-attraction but delayed acting on anything. They were partners, undercover, and in the middle of a case that took priority. There was underlying tension that slowly simmered throughout the story, and they did finally connect. But as I said previously the romance was secondary to the story
