Undead and Unwed

First in the long-running Queen Betsy / Undead series (16 books as of 2023's Undead AF). Published 2004—this is early-2000s paranormal romance with the humor and irreverence of that era. Betsy's voice is the selling point: if you don't click with her snarky first-person narration in chapter one, the book won't convert you. Spice is moderate (a few scenes, comedically toned) rather than the steamy/explicit the previous data suggested. Removed dubious consent and stalking CWs—Sinclair is pushy in a genre-typical way but it doesn't rise to those levels in book 1. Nancy Wu's audiobook narration nails the comedic timing.
