Here are two off the top of my head Larissa Ione, Ilona Andrews

I'm sorry, I know I've said that I will join in this challenge but I've decided that I don't want to join any new challenges till next year because there are several books that I wanted to read this year but can't fit in to any challenges and I can't read a lot while taking classes

haha - I hear ya....I am trying to figure out how to overlap!
