Taste of the nightlife by Sarah Zettel

First in a the series - Vampire Chef

Charlotte Caine is a human chef who runs a restaurant with her vampire brother Chet called Nightlife which caters to the "paranormals" as vampires, witches and warlocks, and werewolves who live among humans are called. When a celebrity restaurant critic, who happens to be a vampire, shows up Charlotte knows a postive review from him could mean instant success. But a drunk warlock shows up the same night and casts a spell that almost burns the building down, dashing any hope of a good review. Then the same drunk turns up murdered on the restaurant doorstep. Evidence points to Chet as the killer and as Charlotte struggles to clear his name, she discovers she must put her trust in a handsome warlock and a charming vampire who are also rivals for her heart.

I picked this up at the library as i was intrigued by the concept and I really enjoyed it.  I don't know if it will be the kind of series I want to read more of but it definitely fit my mood at the time and if I see additional titles come out I'll give it a try.
