Richelle Mead opened Georgina Kincaid with Succubus Blues on February 27, 2007, a 368-page debut -- the longest book in the series -- introducing Georgina, a succubus working an ordinary day job at a Seattle bookstore while feeding on the life force of the men she seduces, an existence she's grown weary of after centuries.

Alternative text for cover: Cover of Succubus RevealedBefore Vampire Academy made her a YA star, Richelle Mead wrote the Georgina Kincaid series, an adult urban fantasy following a succubus working an ordinary-seeming day job at a Seattle bookstore while feeding on the life force of the men she seduces -- a existence she's grown weary of, centuries in. Succubus Blues opens the series establishing Georgina's double life, her found family of angels, demons, and fellow immortals navigating Seattle's supernatural underground, and a slow-burn romance complicated by the fact that intimacy with a succubus literally shortens her partners' lives.
Mead uses Georgina's supernatural condition to dig into very human anxieties -- guilt, self-worth, the cost of the choices we make to survive -- while keeping the series' tone wry and sharply funny even as the stakes escalate. It's markedly more adult in content and voice than Mead's YA work, with a heroine whose moral compromises are the point rather than something to be quickly resolved.
Complete at six books, Georgina Kincaid is a strong pick for readers who enjoy Mead's voice but want her adult urban fantasy rather than her YA series.
Six: Succubus Blues (2007), Succubus on Top (2007), Succubus Dreams (2008), Succubus Heat (2009), Succubus Shadows (2010), and Succubus Revealed (2011).

Yes, the series is complete at six books, concluding with Succubus Revealed (2011).
It's the same author's voice, but it's written for adults with more explicit content and mature themes than her YA series -- worth knowing going in.
