New York Times best-selling author Christine Feehan skillfully weaves strands of the paranormal and romance to create her suspense-filled novels. When Destiny was only a child, her family was murdered and she was transformed into a Carpathian-a powerful and shadowy creature of the night, but not quite a vampire. Destiny shares a telepathic connection with Nicolae, her mentor. But now Nicolae needs to find her, or he may lose his soul and succumb to darkness forever.

"Another great read from Christine Feehan. I'm so happy that Christine went back to writing about the legendary hunters again. This book was wonderful and I loved reading every minute of it. As always, I love that Gregori and Savannah are in this book. I also can't wait to read about Virkirnoff."

" I really enjoy the dark series. Christine Feehan just keeps getting better and better with the storylines and characters throughout. This particular love story was very different from the others and I really liked how she intertwined a few different aspects of the vampires. A great audiobook!! "
— Sunshine, 1/29/2018" Very good book. Lots of action. Love the fight scenes. Happy ending. "
— Sherry, 2/17/2014" #13 in Carpathian series and Destiny (a born Carpathian female) gets together with her mate (Nicolae) the sparks fly. Hot! I liked this story. Destiny can take care of herself. Vikornoff is in this, too. "
— Kathrynn, 2/15/2014" Another high octane, lusty, action adventure from Christine feehan. "
— Gene, 2/5/2014" Although I read this ages ago, this one is memorable. I loved the relationship between these two, and how the very connection that had was a blessing and a danger. I also loved Destiny's whole story, and how she is the first Carpathian we see who was converted by a vampire. So good! "
— Leanne, 1/27/2014" After being dissapointed in the previous book in this series, I was hoping this one would be better. And it definately was! I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the characters; especially the lead being a female Carpathian! I would def recommend this book and the series to other readers. "
— K, 1/21/2014" I liked this one better than some of the others i've read. It was interesting that Destiny had already been converted by a vampire rather than a Carpathian--it changed up the formula some. "
— Jill, 1/18/2014" like the female twist....more more more "
— Marla, 1/8/2014" Feehan never dissapoints. "
— Tiyanna, 12/19/2013" Stilted, poor writing, very repetitive, very boring. Horrible dialogue. All telling, no showing. "
— Gevera, 12/9/2013" interesting twist to the normal story. Liked the amount of humans that were involved with the carpathians. Mary Ann is introduced. Some interaction with a few others (Vikirnoff, Savannah, & Gregori, and mentions Dayan's story). Gave some background of Mikhail's father. "
— Missyb, 11/13/2013" Continues the theme of music from Dark Melody with a different member of the band. I enjoy the continuance of characters and the different perspectives offered up by a member of a group who have experienced all the same events in their lives. "
— Kathy, 10/15/2013" love her books!! I have read them all. can't wait for a new one to come out "

— Christie, 12/22/2012" Finally a book where i didn't want to beat up the main male. "
— Erica, 9/30/2012" This is my all-time favorite book in Christine Feehan's Carpathian series. "
— Allie, 8/30/2012" This was a very good read. Though Nicholae's lifemate, Destiny, had a very traumatic childhood which I found at times very hard to read; the entire story and characters were brilliant. Have I said how much I love these Carpathian men? *laughs* I'd move to Romania now! "
— Fairyblood, 6/5/2012" Sexy and thrilling. One of Feehan's better stories of the Carpathians. "
— Patty, 4/28/2012" I love this entire series. The Idea of lifemates and other half of my heart and soul just touches me. This story made want to laugh and cry. What Destiny went through as a child and how he sensed it and was enraged by how he was unable to help her, and take the trauma from her. "
— Ruby, 2/6/2012" Definitely my favorite book in the series so far. "
— Andrea, 6/25/2011" i liked it, but it wasn't my favorite in the series. "
— Winnie, 6/11/2011" I loved this book, it was good to see a lifemate that was already Carpathian already, and one that'd had been through such suffering! Great book! "
— Louisa, 6/8/2011" not sure who wrote the description, but Dark Destiny is not the first book about a female Carpathian... that would be Dark Magic, with Savannah. But I did love this story. "
— Dawn, 5/15/2011" Too angsty for me to really enjoy it. "
— Jewel, 4/19/2011" This was one of my favorites of hers. Jacques is an intense, crazy hero which made for a great read. "
— Selena, 4/6/2011" Love Christine's work!!! She knows how to write a love story!!! "
