Rich in passion and lush romance, featuring Alpha males, Christine Feehan’s Carpathian dark books are enthralling. This is the story of Byron, one of the oldest Carpathian’s, a man truly on the edge of despair, as he fights not to become that which he hunts.
Byron, a Carpathian male and hunter of the vampire, follows the sound of compelling music to Italy. There he discovers his lifemate, Antoinetta Scarletti, heiress to the great Scarletti fortune. A renowned concert pianist, Antoinetta is the glue that holds the Scarletti family together. Blinded in an explosion that killed her parents, she nevertheless stands to run the family shipping business. Antoinetta lives in the palazzo della morte, the palace of death. There, like her ancestors, she finds someone wants her dead. Hiding secrets of her own, Antoinetta and Byron face the killers and one out of control Carpathian youth.
From the compelling opening paragraph, be drawn into the world of Christine Feehan’s Carpathians.
The fog was the perfect cover for the predator as he moved silently across the sky, searching for prey. He had been alone too long, far from his own kind, fighting the insidious call of power, of evil, that whispered to him every waking minute of his existence. Far below him were the humans, his prey. His enemies. He knew what they would do to one of his kind, should they discover him. He still woke choking from his slumber, trapped for those first waking moments in his past. His body would always bear the scars of torture, though it was nearly impossible to scar his kind. He was Carpathian, a species as old as time, with tremendous gifts to hold dominion over the weather, the land, even animals. He could shift shape and soar high, run with the wolves, yet without the light to his darkness, he could so easily give in to the whispers of temptation, the call for power, and turn wholly evil. He had the potential for becoming the undead, as so many of his kind had chosen to do.
Devoted fans of Christine Feehan will recognize the Scarletti family that Antoinetta descends from. She is a member of the family Christine features in her gothic historical series, beginning with The Scarletti Curse and continuing with Lair of the Lion. |
