About this listen

Lovers challenge destiny and risk their lives in the new Carpathian novel by the #1 New York Times bestselling “queen of paranormal romance.”*

Gabrielle has had enough of battles, of wars, of seeing the man she’s engaged to nearly lose his life when it isn’t even his fight. Once Gary was a gentle and very human researcher. Now he’s a fearless and lethal Carpathian warrior with the blood of an ancient lineage coursing through his veins—a man Gabrielle still needs and dreams of with every breath she takes. All she wants is a life far away from the Carpathian mountains, far from vampires and the shadows cast by the crumbling monastery that hides so many terrible secrets. But Gabrielle soon learns that promises made in the dark can pierce the heart like a dagger.

And she isn’t the only one in search of answers in the corners of the unknown....

Trixie Joanes has come to the Carpathian mountains in search of her wayward granddaughter, fearing that she has been lured there by something unspeakable. Instead, Trixie has stumbled onto the path of a desperate woman on the run. And they’re all fated for the lair of a mysterious ancient with revenge in his soul and the undying power to make bad dreams come true.

Critic reviews

Praise for Christine Feehan and her Carpathian novels

“The queen of paranormal romance! The one who started it all! The erotic, gripping series that has defined an entire genre. I love everything she does.”—J. R. Ward, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“After Bram Stoker, Anne Rice and Joss Whedon (who created the venerated Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Christine Feehan is the person most credited with popularizing the neck gripper.”—Time

“Feehan has a knack for bringing vampiric Carpathians to vivid, virile life in her Dark Carpathian novels.”—Publishers Weekly

“Red-hot romance and great storytelling...a treat you can’t refuse...Thrill-a-minute fantasy with complex characters and a story that captivates from beginning to end.”—Fresh Fiction

I've had the last few DARK stories since they originally came out but the KINDLE episodes aren't sitting in my Library that I had to read it on the web.

What a difference this episode is where there's 2 sets of ancients Carpathian's whom we have the 2 born humans whom have been working on how they'll be able to help the females to carry pregnancy Greg and Gabrielle whom were going to Wed until Greg backs out which breaks Gabrielle then she comes across Her ancient lifemate Aleksei whilst walking to the old Monastery
And the second lifemate is Trixie the grandmother of Reagan whom is the lifemate of Andre and we met her in her own story and Trixie went looking for Reagan as she hasn't heard from her and she had a foreboding feeling about what's happened to her. Then again she definitely wasn't looking for a man especially one as young and handsome as Thane appeared. But it's ONLY when they said about moving to America she seems to agree so they'll be there for her her other Grandchildren
