There was another series that had some promise, based on the description, and you might find it more enjoyable than I did - it's Anton Strout's. It read to me more like a comic book, or super hero or something, I just didn't click with it like I did with Harry Dresden! But YMMV.
I've read that Ilona Andrew's series (either, as far as I know) have a good bit of humor, but they're still on my TBR pile, so I can't say for certain.
Another twist (with a bit of romance, if that's not on your no-no list) that I really liked is Laura Ann Gilman's Retrievers series. Or maybe C.E. Murphy's Walker Papers or Negotiator trilogy.
One that's (to me) a lot darker is Rob Thurman's Cal Leandros series. And one I've only had time to read the first one is Thomas Sniegoski's Remy Chandler series.

Wow, that's a lot of possibilities I'll go search Amazon to see what's what. Thanks!
