Charmed (1992) & Enchanted (1999) by Nora Roberts (2004)

I don't think I've read any of her Donavan stories before, but I liked these. The magic is pretty blatant, but it is set in today's world with Wiccan lore thrown in. The Donavan clan are magical folk from Ireland and they fall in love with non-magical people and have to see if their love can survive the revelation that they are different. In Charmed Anstasia is a healer who falls for Boone, a children's book writer and illustrator who moves next door with his daughter. And in Enchanted Rowan Murray rents a cottage from a friend on the coast of Oregon to get away from it all, she befriends a wolf, which she seem to trust more than the neighbor guy, who just happens to turn into that wolf every so often. I liked her finding what she really wants to do with life.
