Sookie Stackhouse enjoys her job as a cocktail waitress in Merlotte’s, a small-town bar in small-town Bon Temps, deep in Louisiana. She’s funny and pretty and, thanks to her grandmother, she’s very well-mannered – but since not many people truly appreciate her ability to read their minds, the guys haven’t exactly been beating down her door …
And then along came Bill, tall, dark and handsome – and Sookie couldn’t ‘hear’ a word he was thinking. He was exactly the type of guy she’d been waiting all her life for. Of course, Bill had a disability of his own: fussy about his food, not into suntans, bit of a night person: yep, Bill was a vampire.
But at least now Sookie nows there *are* guys she can date who won’t worry about her catching them thinking about other women …
