Midnight Crossroad, the first book in the Midnight Texas trilogy. It will be a summer TV series soon.

I have had two brushes with urban fantasy and I hated both of the series I tried to read. This one is different. I like it. The writing is good, and I am engaged. My only problem with it is that she introduces too many characters too soon.
