I would call Evanovich's One for the Money and its sequels
hardboiled parodies. The protagonist, Stephanie Plum,
encounters many of the standard situations and acts like the
typical detective(well, bounty hunter) but usually needs her
rival/lover Morelli to actually handle the rough stuff. Aside
from the presence of Morelli they remind me of Hailey's
Pernell Hall books, but they are more clearly send ups and
much funnier. Mark2
