Quote: "William was a vampire. She was a human. A witch, but still human. And William had a strict no-dating-humans policy."
Charlie, Michael, and Melinda Howard are orphans in their early twenties--or is their father still alive somewhere? Charlie has been bitten by a werewolf and feels wolfish cravings, which he can only just control, when the moon is full. Michael can see the current mental activity of a living person or the last memories of a dead person when he touches the person. Melinda makes potions and blocks inconvenient memories from ordinary people's minds.
All of them are actively heterosexual but in this book each of them is doomed to heartache. Charlie's girlfriend is neither the human she seems to most people to be, nor the werewolf she seems to Charlie to be. Melinda finally meets the perfect sweetheart, falls in love, and flops into bed before meeting his family; even for witches this is always a mistake. And Michael's girlfriend, a "spirit vessel" or channeller, really is nice--which, considering the sort of people (?) Michael has to deal with every day, means she's a walking target.
The author divides the book into "three seasons" with an eye on half-hour TV episodes. The adventures take place in one wild and crazy summer.
