There's also the two series by Laurell K. Hamilton (though I expect most Butcher fans already know of Hamilton, there's probably a few who don't)...
Anita Blake, Vampire hunter (book 1, Guilty Pleasures)
It's a magic-is-out-and-public setting, rather than the hidden-magic of Dresden Files; there's still a lot of secret stuff, and stuff that the supernaturals by consensus agree it's better the Muggles not know.
Anita raises zombies for a living, generally for a brief (usually 1-night) purpose such as giving legal testimony, secret financial info, or other critical data only the departed knew. She also has one of the few licenses to execute vampires, so she gets called in by law-enforcement when a rogue vamp (and other supernatural threat) is on the loose.
The series drifts over time. The protagonist (Anita Blake) starts as a relative lightweight (like Harry) but ramps up in power such that by late in the series she has people -- well, monsters -- from all over the world who are variously admiring, afraid, etc. She begins even weaker than Harry, supernaturally speaking. By late in the series, she has (within her sphere) even more power than Harry does.
It also drifts in the romantic/relationship issue: the early books seem to be developing a cliche'd "thwarted love triangle" scenario, where Anita is being courted by a vampire AND a werewolf... but Nobody's Getting Any. By late in the series, she's Getting So Much, it's a problem in the rest of her life... and Hamilton doesn't draw a polite curtain, either: some early fans complain the series has "devolved into full-on porn." Well... no. I've read one porn novel, because I made myself. I tried to pick a "good" one with plot and characterization &c (it actually wasn't bad, though there were a few pretty contrived and unbelievable bits, to get moar S3X! into the book); however the least well-plotted and character-driven of the Anita Blake series was better (and had less sex) than that novel had... so, not porn (imho). Still, the tone of the series drifts a lot, from the police-proceedural/detective/semi-horror early on, to decidedly erotic-fiction/detective/semi-horror later; if explicit sex in the novels is an issue for you, stop reading Anita at book 5 (Bloody Bones).
Then there's the Merry Gentry series (book 1, A Kiss of Shadows)
Also an overt-magic (instead of hidden-magic) setting; also one where despite being "in the open" there's lots of "only the insiders know" magical secrets. Also sex. This one BEGINS with quite a bit of overt sex, and ramps up, so reader beware (or eagerly seek it out, if that's your thing)... one other point about the sex in this series -- it's often important to plot and character issues, so you can't always "skim ahead" if you dislike those bits. It moves smoothly along to another Reverse Harem series like Anita Blake (but sooner).
Reading both series, and many of those curtain-not-drawn details, I'm honestly left feeling a bit uncomfortably-voyeuristic about the author's own erotic fantasy life, and how her actual love-life has proceeded over the past decade or two (and she has "come out" to her fans about some of those details, enough for me to suspect I'm right about many more).
Merry (Meredith) is literally a faerie princess -- her dad was the Unseelie Queen's brother, she herself is nominally 2nd in line for the throne (after her cousin, the Queen's son). The faeries are mostly European-descended, exiled from Europe after WWII, where they were involved in the war and so fearsome that the European peace-treaty kicked out both Seelie & Unseelie courts, who came to settle in the USA (under threat of banishment if they behave badly again).
Merry is living in disguise, hidden among mortals (she's part mortal herself), because the Queen hates her, and (as a half-mortal) so do many other courtiers; after a duel almost killed her, she realized she wasn't safe (the duels would continue until she died), so she went into hiding.
Early in the 1st novel, her cover is broken. She is summoned back "home," with promises of protection. This is another one where the protagonist's power ramps up as the series progresses; but it ramps up much faster. As the series opens, her only substantive power is "Glamour" -- she can cast tremendously effective personal disguise magic, but not do much more than that. She gets a big powerup early in the first novel, and generally gets more and more throughout the series. By late in the series, she's up to world-spanning power (not entirely under her control) bordering on demi-goddess-hood.
