I'm not sure I know of any that exactly fit, but the novels that come to mind are:

Sharon Lee's series set in rural Maine is a contemporary fantasy. It is a trilogy, starting with Carousel Tides. I'm not sure how cozy it is, but it avoids most of the paranormal sub-genre tropes.

Another that come to mind is Mathemagics by Margaret Ball, where the magic works much like computer programming, and a woman from our world is valued for her skills with math that work like magic in another world.

If you don't mind a science fiction time travel cozy mystery, then I heartily recommend The Far Time Incident by Neve Maslakovic. That book makes me happy. It has fun characters, a more realistic depiction of academia than I've come across in most fiction, and it manages to successfully satisfy the requirements of many genres at once.
