The first book in this amazing series is titled Guilty Pleasures. Anita Blake may be small and young, but vampires call her the Executioner. Anita is a necromancer and vampire hunter in a time when vampires are protected by law--as long as they don't get too nasty. Now someone's killing innocent vampires and Anita agrees--with a bit of vampiric arm-twisting--to help figure out who and why. Trust is a luxury Anita can't afford when her allies aren't human. The city's most powerful vampire, Nikolaos, is 1,000 years old and looks like a 10-year-old girl. The second most powerful vampire, Jean-Claude, is interested in more than just Anita's professional talents, but the feisty necromancer isn't playing along--yet.
The series continues with more pulse pounding action and the further along you get the more romance is introduced into Anita's life. These books are my absolute favorite book series, and I just dedicated this summer to reading every last one of them. I just returned the newest book, Blood Noir, back to the library. (I find it too expensive to buy hardback, but I'll get it when it comes out in paperback. So, I can reread it as much as I want.) If you want action, supernatural, romance, and a woman who can kick almost anythings ass all rolled up into one then check out Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series.
