The Arcadia Bell series by Jenn Bennett runs five books from 2011 to 2014, starting with Kindling the Moon. Arcadia “Cady” Bell is a magician living under a false identity, running a tiki bar called Tambuku. When her parents are accused of a magical crime, she has to use her abilities to clear their names.
The series blends urban fantasy with romance, and the tiki bar setting gives it a more distinctive atmosphere than the typical supernatural-detective framework. Bennett published the series quickly, with all five books out in under three years.
