If you like urban paranormal romance I'm really into Nalini Singh, both the Guild Hunter & psy/changeling series, though I think p/c jumped the shark a bit when she moved to "psy/changeling trinity" books. If you want more Irish + fairies, check out Karen Marie Moning's Fever series.

I can keep going. This is my very public vice!

I was coming to recommend this one. The series is a great read! I normally hate when someone other than the person telling the story jumps in and starts telling the store, but it really worked here (not until book 2 or 3?).

Is fairy folk paranormal or fantasy?

Pamela Palmer books- she’s a local author! Skip her Vamp City series if you don’t like vampires, but try the others— Esri, Feral Warriors, Jewels of Time.

The Dead Romantics
Dream Lake

Jayne Ann Krentz or her alter ego Amanda Quick if you prefer historicals

Lately ai have been enjoying a series by an Irish writer about faeries in Ireland. Her name is Trisha O Malley and she has written two series. What else might I enjoy? No vampires please!
