The Beekeeper's Apprentice is one of my top 20 all time books any genre
Liz Evans Grace Smith series
http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/e/liz-evans/
has a lot of humor very reminiscent of Stephanie Plum
Catherine Coulter's FBI thrillers

The series seems like more matchmaking, and now psychic
activities than sleuthing
Already mentioned was Donna Andrews Meg Langslow series but not the
Turing Hopper series featuring a mostly immobile sleuth like Nero Wolfe
