(This list in no particular order except for Kate. Kate is #1 for me.)

The entire Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews. (I’d like to be Kate when I grow up.)
The entire Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews (but especially the first three with Nevada and Mad Rogan)
The Iron Duke by Meljean Brook
The Kraken King by Meljean Brook
Alpha and Omega: A Companion Novella to Cry Wolf by Patricia Briggs
The Mercy Thompson Series by Patricia Briggs
Dragon Bound by Thea Harrison
Mr. Impossible by Loretta Chase
Lake of Dreams (short novella in Everlasting Love) by Linda Howard
Kiss of Steel (The London Steampunk Series, Book 1) by Bec McMaster
The Ophelia Prophecy by Sharon Lynn Fisher
Rogue’s Pawn (and the rest of the Covenant of Thorns series) by Jeffe Kennedy (These are hot and dark. Consider yourself warned.)
Warrior’s Woman by Johanna Lindsey (This book has one of the best sidekicks in a romance novel. Martha is a Mock II computer. She is free-thinking. I would gladly trade in Alexa and Siri for a Martha.)
Sunshine by Robin McKinley
A Hunger Like No Other by Kresley Cole
Amaryllis by Jayne Castle (really all of Jayne Castle’s early books though the more recent ones are good too.)
Polaris Rising by Jessie Mihalik

*These are my favorites at least as of today. This could change at any moment ‘cause my Kindle is loaded and ready with so many books that if they were in paper format I could build a fort with multiple rooms. Some books on this list date me by a lot, but that’s okay. Also, two of these are novellas, but I’m counting them anyway!)

What are your favorites?
