When your best detective is your ex-wife🤭📖🚓
Greater Than Us by MK Morris - available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble!🪻
Christiana Hartman is in search of the bastard who crashed into her brand new Corvette, stole it, and then fled the scene. She’s not just a rightfully disgruntled carjacking victim. She’s also Unity, Mississippi’s best, most seasoned detective. And she doesn’t let any illegal activity fly under her radar.
But it’s not easy solving crimes and bringing bad guys to justice when your ex-husband is the sheriff. A sinfully attractive sheriff with depthful eyes, good hair, and a good heart at that.
Jax Hartman has more important things to worry about than being lusted after by every available woman in Unity. His top concern is and has always been the citizens of his beloved, small, drama-loving town. That and looking after Christiana, who couldn’t care less about his strict rules and absurd safety measures.
When a single clue surfaces, these two at-odds ex-lovers find themselves in the center of something greater than an investigation. From rich, out-of-town moguls with grudges to innocent-looking locals, everybody is a suspect. And working hot cases can lead to hotter heads and scalding desires.
Some collisions end in flames. Others reignite sparks.

Reading 'Greater Than Us' was an intriguing journey into the complexities of love and justice in a tight-knit community. As someone who enjoys novels blending romance and suspense, I found Christiana Hartman’s character particularly compelling because she portrays a strong, independent detective navigating personal challenges alongside professional duties. What stood out to me was how the story highlights the tension and chemistry between Christiana and Jax Hartman, her ex-husband and the town sheriff. Their dynamic felt real and relatable, demonstrating how personal histories can both complicate and deepen partnerships—especially under stressful circumstances involving hot cases and high stakes. The setting of Unity, Mississippi, adds a unique charm to the novel, illustrating the intricacies of small-town life where everybody knows each other and secrets don’t stay hidden for long. The mix of locals and out-of-town figures keeps the mystery engaging, making readers question who they can trust. The phrase from the book's imagery, "Some collisions end in flames. Others reignite sparks," beautifully captures the dual themes of the story—danger and romance intertwined. This metaphor resonated with me as it reflects how conflict can lead to unexpected growth and revitalization in relationships. For readers interested in romance suspense or small-town mysteries, 'Greater Than Us' is a perfect pick. It’s not just about solving crimes but also about exploring how past connections influence present decisions, creating a multi-layered narrative that keeps you hooked till the last page.
