Series: The Parasol Protectorate #2
From Goodreads. Alexia Tarabotti, the Lady Woolsey, awakens in the wee hours of the mid-afternoon to find her husband, who should be decently asleep like any normal werewolf, yelling at the top of his lungs. Then he disappears - leaving her to deal with a regiment of supernatural soldiers encamped on her doorstep, a plethora of exorcised ghosts, and an angry Queen Victoria.
But Alexia is armed with her trusty parasol, the latest fashions, and an arsenal of biting civility. Even when her investigations take her to Scotland, the backwater of ugly waistcoats, she is prepared: upending werewolf pack dynamics as only the soulless can.
She might even find time to track down her wayward husband, if she feels like it.

Series: The Parasol Protectorate #3
From Goodreads. Quitting her husband's house and moving back in with her horrible family, Lady Maccon becomes the scandal of the London season.
Queen Victoria dismisses her from the Shadow Council, and the only person who can explain anything, Lord Akeldama, unexpectedly leaves town. To top it all off, Alexia is attacked by homicidal mechanical ladybugs, indicating, as only ladybugs can, the fact that all of London's vampires are now very much interested in seeing Alexia quite thoroughly dead.
While Lord Maccon elects to get progressively more inebriated and Professor Lyall desperately tries to hold the Woolsey werewolf pack together, Alexia flees England for Italy in search of the mysterious Templars. Only they know enough about the preternatural to explain her increasingly inconvenient condition, but they may be worse than the vampires -- and they're armed with pesto.

With the introduction of new characters and digging deeper into the ones you already know and love, fans of the series will not be disappointed!
Changeless was an adventure that captivated me from the beginning. Starting with the sudden and unexplained disappearance of her new husband, Alexia is once again thrown into a mystery of supernatural proportions. Alexia and her dearest friend Ivy are introduced to a one Madame Lefoux who is an inventor and a sharp dresser with a taste for men's wear. They travel up to Scotland, following Lord Macoon, on a dirigible where it is quite obvious that Alexia's life is in danger. In Scotland, Lord Maccon's previous pack is without an Alpha and has lost th
