The problem is that many of these life-mates are humans who have no idea that vampires or life-mates exist! Earlier in the series a vampire met his mate Samantha Willan. Samantha has two sisters that she is determined to find life-mates for so that when she is turned into a vampire she won't have to leave them behind! She miraculously found one for her sister Jo, but still hasn't had any luck with Alex...
Finding the Perfect Man...or Vampire
Alex Willan has been having a string of terrible luck. She's two weeks away from the grand opening of her second restaurant and nothing is going right. She's going crazy trying to manage her current one while fighting setbacks and bad luck at her new one! Worst of all, she started a restaurant because she's a professional chef and loves to cook, but now all she has time for is the business and and she hardly has time for that!
Just when she thinks it can't get any worse, her head chef quits. Now she needs to find a replacement before the dinner rush! Just as she's getting ready to panic her sister Samantha calls her. There's a guy she wants Alex to meet. Again. Not only does Alex not have the time for it she's getting sick of the men her sisters keep parading in front of her! Every single one of them stares at her and then walks away; she's starting to get self-conscious. Then Samantha drops the bomb: Cale Valens is a professional chef from Paris!
A Vampire Chef Who Hates Food
Cale may be from Paris, but there's a problem: he isn't a chef. In fact, he hasn't even eaten food in over 1000 years and just the smell of it sickens him. Cale is a 2000-year-old vampire who long ago gave up hope that he'd ever find a life-mate. But his Aunt, the ultimate matchmaker, is convinced that he just has to meet Alex Willan. Cale decides that he may as well give it a shot, but pretending to be a chef isn't what he signed up for!
When he meets Alex, Cale is shocked to discover that he can't read her mind which means that she is his life-mate. Cale is willing to do anything to stay close to her, even pretend to be a chef! He does a terrible job of it, but has a few inhuman tricks up his sleeve and the night is a success. After the dinner rush he follows Alex to her new restaurant where she is frantically painting the lime-green walls the color they were supposed to be. He offers to help and soon finds himself spending the evening with the girl of his dreams. But he knows that not only does he need to fess up to not being a chef, he needs to tell her that he's a vampire!
Falling in Love with the Perfect Vampire
Alex can't believe how fast her luck has turned around. After finding out that Alex prefers cooking to managing, Cale trades places with her and takes over the business end and allows Alex to return to what she loves: cooking. Her incredibly handsome new business manager effortlessly fixes all of her problems and Alex is finally able to relax. But now she's starting to fall head over heels for Cale. After being hurt once, Alex is afraid to let another man back into her life. Even worse, Cale is perfect. Too perfect. Alex is convinced that he's got some horrible secret that he's hiding because she just can't be that lucky!
After a serious accident, that may not have been an accident at all, Alex finds out that she was right. Cale does have a secret. He's a vampire! The horrified Alex soon comes to another realization: her sister Samantha is trapped by other vampires! Now Alex is determined to save her sister from the bloodsucking monsters!
