(Vicky Bliss novels are Borrower of the Night, Street of the Five Moons, Silhouette in Scarlet, Trojan Gold, and Night Train to Memphis. The one thing I hate about Amazon is that it doesn't sort series in order.)
The problem with Amelia is that you sort of have to have been following along. Characters from six or seven books back will reappear and she doesn't bother to spend too much time getting you up to speed on the events from the last book. I'm vested, though, and I love Amelia. And 18 books in a series is a lot to catch up on.

I LOVE the Vicki Bliss novels -- I recently bought Night Train to Memphis to re-read because I'm running out of books. I've read the entire series and would love to see another one. I also love her series that featured the well-traveled librarian woman. It kills me that I dont' like Amelia Peabody since I love all of her other books so I might actually give that series another try, if I can figure out the proper order to read them in.
