Mhm, i soooo get you. Al those cliché-books, where a plain girl is sweept off her feet by a handsome Were-whatever or vamp...
Try this: Jennifer Roberson.
She co-wrote the last Marion Zimmer Bradley books (Darekcover, AVALON) and most of her books are pretty awesome.
Best of her is the "Sworddancer"-story. Seven books about two sword-masters, one from the south and one from the north - worlds colliding...Sandtiger and Del. (http://i43.tower.com/images/mm100653629/novels-tiger-del-volume-iii-jennifer-roberson-paperback-cover-art.jpg) Yes, there is a love interest, but it´s not the easy one. Chapters switch between Del and Tiger telling the story..kinda interesting.
The Cheysuli-books are about people who live with animals in a fantasy kingdom. Kind of like Games of Thrones.
Her latest story-arc is the "Karavans". Three books so far and I just love Rhuan, her male main-character. He´s a demon who wants to live among humans... Nice!!!!! Here´s the first of the books (it´s avaiable in German as well, if you prefer that): http://www.amazon.com/Karavans-1-Jennifer-Roberson/dp/0756404096/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1356874117&sr=8-4&keywords=jennifer+roberson
