Well, there's the Kate/Curran relationship in the Kate Daniels series. But I'm not sure I know any romantic UF
By definition, the whole book can't be romance dominated or it would technically be PNR I think. But a good love interest is what I'm looking for. The Kate Daniels series certainly has one of those

Yes, I would have to agree. The relationship between Mac and Barrons is awesome.
