By some interesting twist of fate, I just read two Yasmine Galenorn novels at the same time: Shaded Vision and Crimson Veil. Both are novels in the "Otherworld" series, and Shaded Vision comes in the series before Crimson Veil. I listened to Crimson Veil in audio book form and read Shaded Vision in book form. The narrator of Crimson Veil is Cassandra Campbell and she did a wonderful job with bringing the characters of the story alive. The D'Artigo sisters are three half-Fae, half-human ex-operatives for the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. Camille is a witch, Delilah is a werecat and Menolly is an acrobat turned vampire. The sisters have been charged with finding seven spirit seals and keeping them away from a demon lord. In Shaded Vision, the sisters are trying to find an arsonist who keeps bombing supernatural businesses such as the Supe Community Council and several vampire bars. In Crimson Veil, the sisters are trying to stop Lowestar Radcliff (the demon in charge of a supernatural corporate power grab) from awakening Suvika, the lord of vice. Both stories are full of complex characters and it is enjoyable reading (and listening to) how they interact with each other. The novels are wonderful paranormal stories with romance and fantastical creatures thrown in the mix. I do suggest you read the books in order as the events of each book build upon each other.
