Note that aside from collaborations with Lackey, Rosemary Edgehill writes romances under that name. She also writes SF as "Eluki Bes Shahar". (See
Butterfly and Hellflower, a lovely trilogy.)
And she has a mystery series set in the contemporary NYC pagan community , reissued as
"Bell, Book, and Murder", whose heroine is is a member of a coven. Edgehill does a lovely job of walking a fine line, and leaving it up to the reader as to whether supernatural events really occur. (They might have been actions of the Goddess in response to prayer, and might have been happenstance. Your call...) And while I haven't traveled in those circles lately, she seems to have done a lovely job of capturing the feel of the pagan community and skewering a few of the more prominent and less likeable members.
