Most companies issue an employee handbook that outlines the details of work place relationships, you should start there. Your HR department is probably not a safe haven for you in this circumstance, they'll probably be neutral until a decision is made.
If you feel like you're being harassed, you could get help from a lawyer specializing in employment / workers rights. I do not recommend this -- there's a huge risk in retaining an lawyer. Your employer would probably consider you a troublemaker and they might find another reason to try and terminate you.
Personally I would just sit it out. If they find nothing, they won't have the right to take action against you. If you are terminated wrongly, that's different - then consider the lawyer.

Work place relationships
I have been the subject of, now, 2 work place investigations in regards to my close working relationship with my female boss. We are both married and the first investigation by our workplace revealed nothing inappropriate. Now someone has launched another investigation for the same reason and I know the results will be the same, nothing found. My question to you is this:do I and my boss have any legal rights or recourse in regards to the unfounded claims. My boss is tired of this and has told me tonight that she is giving her notice tonight. Please help.

First off, is there anything going on between you two? If not, then there is nothing to worry about.
Second, check with HR and see what the company policies are regarding the type of relationship you two have going on.
Thirdly, is it impacting those who work around you?
If she didn't want to put in her notice, you could always transfer to another department, or ask for someone else to be your boss instead of her.
