Quincie Morris is a relatively ordinary high school senior in Austin, but her life is rather busy. Her parents founded an Italian restaurant which she and her uncle have been running since their deaths. But to make it more interesting, they've decided to completely remodel to reopen with a vampire theme. Unfortunately, they have to find a new "vampire" chef in a hurry and turn him into a Dark Lord for the melodramatic aspect of the restaurant. As if that isn't enough stress, her half-werewolf best friend is unavailable as he deals with the difficulties of coming-of-age, leaving Quincie wondering where they stand. Will Quincie be able to deal with all the issues in her personal life and still pull off a perfect opening night at the restaurant?
This was definitely an interesting book. The characters, particularly Quincie, are well-developed and realistic. I thought the actual plot was a little odd - the ending seemed a little unfinished somehow, although it's obviously meant to be a bit silly. In general, I'd recommend this book to fantasy readers who enjoy fluffy stories or stories about the supernatural in real life.
