The Harlequin - Laurell K. Hamilton

Anita Blake's life finally seems to working, despite all the men in her life, and the complications not just they but also the metaphysical crap that comes with them.

Then, Anita is given a white mask and suddenly there are a whole lot of new questions to be asked which no one , even Jean-Claude seems to be able to answer.

I really enjoyed this one. There's not so much sex and what there is can easily be skipped over without affecting the story at all. Lots of action.

The Minister's Daughter - Julie Hearn

It's the story of a little town, who are believers in the old ways, piskies and faeries, who find themselves with a new intolerant zealously religious minister.

One young girl, Nell, being trained in the ways;herb gathering, mid/wifery, spells and healing who gets caught in the lies of the minister's daughter. Trouble comes.
