JUSTINE KNOWS SHE'S GOING TO DIE. ANY SECOND NOW.Justine Jones has a secret. A hardcore hypochondriac, she's convinced a blood vessel is about to burst in her brain. Then, out of the blue, a startlingly handsome man named Packard peers into Justine's soul and invites her to join his private crime-fighting team. It's a once-in-a-lifetime deal. With a little of Packard's hands-on training, Justine can weaponize her neurosis, turning it outward on Midcity's worst criminals, and finally get the freedom from fear she's always craved. End of problem. Or is it? In Midcity, a dashing police chief is fighting a unique breed of outlaw with more than human powers. And while Justine's first missions, including one against a nymphomaniac husband-killer, are thrilling successes, there is more to Packard than meets the eye. Soon, while battling her attraction to two very different men, Justine is plunging deeper into a world of wizardry, eroticism, and cosmic secrets. With Packard's help, Justine has freed herself from her madness--only to discover a reality more frightening than anyone's worst fears.From the Paperback edition.

“oh god, never listen to an audiobook which has sex scenes in it. horribly awkward”
My first statement still stands, it was even worse when they were...uh...complete sex scenes.
Not sure that I'll bother with the rest of the series as I suspect it'll be mainly Justine trying to choose between two of the characters. The world is interesting, sort has a comic book feel which is not my thing but the disillusioning was intriguing though morally suspect.
