I just finished Fortune's Pawn by Rachel Bach - really fun space-based action with a kick-ass heroine (ambitious mercenary).
It's science fiction, but it has a very urban fantasy feel to the writing - just that instead of vampires and werewolves and fae, it's aliens and space ships. Some romance (nothing explicit), but I never felt it overshadowed the plot (the action and shooting at things stayed at the forefront) but actually added to it.
The downside is that now I have two more (not-yet-released) books to add to my wishlist and to get - and sooner rather than later, quite possibly...
