Books: Well, Hello, Suckers
(2 of 2)
Feehan and Hamilton take their subject seriously, but not all do. In Undead and Unwed by MaryJanice Davidson, a former model uses her can't-be-killed status to scare the bejesus out of her stepmother, who did a postmortem heist of all her Manolo Blahniks (a shoe brand that pops up in these books a lot; the designer must offer a specter discount). It ends happily for our heroine, although these books are not the kind that necessarily conclude with a wedding. It's probably safer that way, given that for vampires, "till death do us part" is the kind of promise that could come back to bite you.
