Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith  APPLY IN PERSON BETWEEN 2:00 AND 4:00 PM. Quincie Morris has never felt more alone. Her parents are dead, and her hybrid-werewolf first love is threatening to embark on a rite of passage that will separate them forever. Then, as she and her uncle are about to unveil their hot vampire-themed restaurant, a brutal murder leaves them scrambling for a chef. Can Quincie transform their new hire into a culinary Dark Lord before opening night? Can he wow the crowd in his fake fangs, cheap cape, and red contact lenses — or is there more to this earnest face than meets the eye? As human and preternatural forces clash, a deadly love triangle forms, and the line between predator and prey begins to blur. Who's playing whom? And how long can Quincie play along before she loses everything? TANTALIZE marks Cynthia Leitich Smith's delicious debut as a preeminent author of dark fantasy. Teasers! Pg 15: "For most of my fellow Waterloo High School Seniors, the future was little more than a misty dream. Mine had a liquor license from the state of Texas and an uncle-manager who'd bailed tonight to go skinny-dipping with his girlfriend, Ruby." Pg 59: "I held up a finger to stop him from interrupting. "And, at least so far as the general public is concerned, we also have to present you as reigning vampire king over anybody who dares to stroll through the front door.""
