I just finished "Halfway to the Grave" by Jeaniene Frost, kind of liking it, but also missing something. I think mostly the heroine annoyed me, she was obnoxious. However, when scrolling through the reviews for this book on amazon it was often said that this book is just a bad copy of Buffy/Spike. Okay. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I've heard of that, but now finding THE books that are, presumably, so much better than the Grave series is a challenge because, obviously, there are so many out by different authors.

Question: which or by whom are the romantic fantasy books with Buffy and Spike as the protagonists?

Not a clue but I will say that the Bones and Cat series by Jeanine Frost gets better as do the spin offs!

You're saying if the first book left something to wish for, the following books are better? I do have book 2, 3 and 4 but don't dare to pick them up ... ;-)

I love Cat and Bones!!!!
