You might like the Hilary Tamar books by Sarah Caudwell-- there are only four of them, though. Some people don't like them because Hilary is super arrogant and pretentious and kind of an upper-class twit, but in small doses s/he is very charming. (I say "s/he" because don't get to find out Hilary's actual gender in the books; it can be read either way.)
Actually looking in the comments of the article I just linked to, someone mentions Robert B. Parker's "Spencer & Hawk" series as the perfect antidote to an overdose of Hilary Tamar, and you *might* like those as well.
