Rating:  Summary: The Carpathians Come To America! Review: Aidan Savage is a Hunter. Little did he know that the woman he thought to be a vampiress was actually his lifemate - thank goodness he didn't destroy her before it was too late! Who cared that she looked like a hag and hated him on sight (talk about having to gain someone's trust), Alexandria Houton was the woman for him! Once he was able to heal her that is.This book was a little different from the previous books and although Mikhail is mentioned, only Gregori makes an appearance. It takes place in San Francisco and has a more modern feel to it. Not to mention more family: Aidan has adopted a "human" family (Maria and Stefan), not to mention his brother Julian Savage (who has his own story in Dark Challenge) and Alexandria little brother Joshua. Although this story was very good I found it missing that "extra, special something" that Dark Prince and Dark Desire had. Maybe it was his appearance (Aidan and Julian are the "golden twins" where everyone else is dark) or maybe it was the lack of Carpathians involved, I'm not sure. The book was very good but in order to be a 5 star book, it has to be extra special!
Rating:  Summary: Dark Gold - 24 karat Review: Dark Gold, the third in the Carpathian saga, was a wonderful book. This one is a bit gory at times, but well worth reading. I can definately sympathize with the feelings of Alex. Read this book and you'll fall in love with Aiden, too.
Rating:  Summary: GO ADIAN... Review: Loved it,i found it facinating because Adian lived with humans and trusted them,not like other Carpathian males.His character was kind,generous,loving and protective which is exactly what Alexandria needed.I really enjoyed the humor between Adian and Alexandria,made me laugh out loud.i'm truley hooked.
Rating:  Summary: The mistress of the romance genre Review: Alexandria Houton is sorely abused by the undead after witnessing his murderous rampage...and her only thought is to protect her baby brother from harm! She spins a tale of a golden angel who will save them with his golden magic! She describes Aiden to a T though she's never seen him. But...is he a savior...or is he too an evil vampire??? Aidan destroys vampires...the evil who have turned from their lonely lives as Carpathians to the thrill of the kill. When Aidan discovers Alexandria looking like a hag and half dead clutching a child, he assumes she is evil and has become a vampiress. As he takes her blood and goes in for the kill, he discovers the light and color that only a lifemate can offer! Rather than kill Alexandria, he saves her life the only way he can and begins the process of turning her to Carpathian. Alexandria refuses to accept her fate and rebels at every turn! Her only concern is her brother, Joshua and she must stay normal and human for him! Can Aidan give her the best of both worlds? Or will his natural desire to control and protect push Alexandria into the sun? Once again, Ms. Feehan gives us a wonderful story with a fantastic hero and hot sizzling sex and lots of plot twists that lead to adventure and continues the greatest love stories I have ever read! She truly is the mistress of the Carpathians and the romance genre!
Rating:  Summary: CHRISTINE FEEHAN'S DARK SERIES. Review: NOT HAVE I PURCHASED THE FIRST FOUR OF HER BOOKS, I HAVE READ THEM AND THROUGHLY ENJOYED IT ALOT. I CAN NOT WAIT FOR "DARK CHALLENGE " IN NOVEMBER. WHEN IT DOES COME OUT. I'LL BE CERTAIN TO BUY IT TO READ I AM SURE IT WILL BE JUST AS THRILING AS HER OTHER WORKS. CHRISTINE IS A WINNER AS FAR AS VAMPIRE ROMANCES GOES. IF THERE WERE A RANKING OF UP TO TEN,SHE WILL BE MOST DESERVING OF IT.
Rating:  Summary: Wow! Aidan is the best hero yet... Review: I absolutely loved this book. I actually reread it right after I finished it. Aidan is so sexy, and Alexandra was so perfect for him. I liked that she continued to defy him, as opposed to other heroines who meekly do as they are told when faced with someone so powerful. This was my favorite out of her dark series. If you are a fan of Nancy Gideon and Amanda Ashley you will love this book...
Rating:  Summary: Wonderful blend of magic and romance Review: This is only one of a very few books that blend the supernatural and romance skillfully together. It does not make the romance seem like an afterthought. Nor does it make the supernatural elements seem silly. The story is well written and never boring. I still had some questions about the differences between Carpathians and vampires, but those are probably answered in the first book in this series. I already have plans to read it and Gregori's story.
Rating:  Summary: Dark Gold Review: This was the first book I ever read by Ms. Feehan. I enjoyed this book so much that I bought the other three to the series and am looking forward to the 5th one in November, 2000. Normally I'm not into books that run in series but these books had me glued. Would highly recommend!
Rating:  Summary: Christine's Carpathians are not to be missed! Review: I enjoyed Alex and Aidan's story. It was sensuous and dramatic and I especially enjoyed the way Christine Feehan resolved all their differences into a most satisfying happy ending!
Rating:  Summary: Addictive Review: I absolutely love this series. It is so refreshing to read an emotional and sexy vampire book (I've said it before and I'll say it again--they're vampires!--just good ones). I have definitely enjoyed the playfulness in this book, the jokes and the teasing, yet it still remains serious. I recently received Dark Magic, and now I want to read that one, but, as usual, I don't want Dark Gold to ever end. Ms. Feehan has magnificently succeeded in writing the kind of books that one never wants to put down, and one never wants to have end.
