I'm looking supernatural like vampires, werewolves, ...
A good story is a must, and the best would be action with a subtle love story that pulls together in the end (whether it be the main focus or not).

Laurel K. Hamilton has a series set in St. Louis, Missouri, involving her main character, Anita Blake, who is a necromancer and vampire executioner, and becomes involved with the vampire "Master of the City" as well as the leader of the local werewolf pack. There are at least 8 books in that series already, and I know she's planning on more. She also writes a series about fairies and other mythical creatures, but I've only read one or two books in that series.

Kim Harrison also has a series that revolves around her main character, Rachel Morgan, set in Detroit (I think). Rachel's a witch who has to deal with vamps and weres. I've only read one of her books yet, but plan to read more of the series.

Anne Rice has a book entitled The Witching Hour. It's right up your alley. It has demons, action and a subtle love story. Read it.

Dresden file book series by Jim Butcher.There are 8 books in the series beginning with stormfront.It narrates the story of Harry Dresden,chicago's only professional wizard who works as a detective.He stands between the general population who is ignorant about the supernatural world and the monsters - vampires,werewolves,fallen angels,fey.He is aided by Bob,a talking skull.Karrin Murphy-a police officer and Thomas-a white court vampire.

Another good series is the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The books provide an alternate take on vampires.People who are unjustly murdered call upon Artemis(Greek goddess) and she grants them a day to avenge themselves.After that they are recruited to her army to fight against evil.These are romance novels.Best of the series are 'Dance with the devil' and 'Seize the night'.

Werehunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The books in the series are Nightplay,Dragonswan,Stroke of midnight,Unleash the night.These are romance novels.You can read not only about were-wolves but also about were-dragons,were-panthers,wer... and were-tigers.The heros are handsome,powerful and with a mysterious past.Interesting reading.The best of the lot is Night play.

Hunter's moon,Moon's web are novels written by Cathy Clamp and C.T. Adams about a werewolf Tony Giodone who is an assassin-for-hire by profession.It is written from Tony's first person POV (point of view).Tony meets his new client, one Suzi Quentin. She wanted someone offed. Well, this is child's play to our boy...um...wolf...Tony. Only she knocks him for a loop when she tells him the name of the person she wants killed - herself!So begins the story.

For a really funny vampire romance books read Argeneau book series by Lynsay Sands.The first one of the lot is 'Single white vampire'.Recluse vampire and novelist Lucern Argeneau finds his lair being invaded by his determined editor Kate.He has to hide the fact that he is a vampire from Kate,partake his daily blood quota and manage his family.His interfering all-vampire family doesn’t make things easier.Infact his mom thinks that Kate is perfectly suitable for him.

Prime vampire novels by Susan Sizemore is interesting.The best of the lot is the 4th book 'Master of Darkness.' Reluctant vampire hunter Eden Faveau thinks Laurent is her new partner in an investigation to take down a local vampire drug ring. Laurent is really a renegade vampire from the Tribe Manticore and he is in the right place at the right time to take advantage of Eden. He needs her computer expertise to hack a laptop that he stole from the Tribe leader, Justinian.

Rebecca Paisley-A basket of wishes.
Its about a fairy Splendour who is ordered to marry a human( a duke).The poor hero is confused by the woman who will shrink if not kissed regularly,drinks apricot face lotion.On top of that he is harassed by splendour's sister who even turns him into a snail.His cousin Emil thinks that Splendour is exactly what the doctor ordered for the staid ,boring Jordan.

Another supernatural detective series is Nightside book series by Simon R.Green.John Taylor, the main character, is a private eye specializing in finding things. He literally has a private eye, one he can open and find anything. This power only works in the nightside, but anytime he opens it, his enemies (and he does not know who they are, but they have been hunting him since he was young) pick up on his presence like his gift is a homing devise. He as quite a reputation, some of which is true, some not and it gets him into trouble, or sometimes out of it, but it is the fact that some of it has nothing to do with him so much as that he is his mother's son. A mother he never knew and no one will tell him about. One big case is covered in each book, but underlying tensions build up higher and higher running through out the series.

'Bitten' is about the only female werewolf Elena.I found her too whiny.But don't forget to read Clayton's story 'Savage' and 'Ascension' by the same author.Those stories are free and can be seen in Kelley Armstrong's website.That's one bad boy wolf.

J.R.Ward,P.N.Elrod,Shiloh Walker all write supernatural books.But those are not my favorates.
