Dark Illusion
Dark Illusion ('Dark' Carpathian Book 33) - Christine Feehan
Dark (Carpathians), Book 29

I Picked Up This Book Because: Continue the series

The Characters:

Julija Brennan:
Isai Florea:
Barnabas, Anatolli (Julija’s father), Belle, Blue, Comet, Phaedra

The Story:

I used to adore Christine Feehan’s writing, the last few years however, I've found it repetitive and unnecessarily long. This book is no exception. While she creates beautiful, vivid images with her words I could do with a few less of them. The story, when you trim off the excess, was really good. Julija was trying to find a destroy a book created by Xavier and last seen with Isai’s brother. I will admit Isai’s behavior at the beginning of the book had me ready to quit but I’m glad I held on. I like him and Julija together.

The Random Thoughts:

I listened to this on CD and greatly missed the ability to speed up the dialogue like I can on digital audiobooks.

The Score Card:

Dark Legacy (Dark #27) by Christine Feehan

 

 

 

 

Author: Christine Feehan

Title: Dark Legacy

Series: Dark

In a beautiful compound hidden away from the world, Emeline Sanchez tries to blunt the pain that has wracked her body ever since her terrifying ordeal in the labyrinth beneath the city—when she was forced to exchange blood with an evil master vampire.

Now, it’s his voice that haunts her...that calls to her in the dark...that never lets her rest. And while the children that she helped to free from his clutches struggle to heal, watched over by their Carpathian protectors, Emeline knows one thing: She must sacrifice herself to keep them all from harm.

 

 

 

 

Dark Legacy is actually book 31 of the Dark Series and continues where we left off from Dark Carousel with Emeline sacrificing herself to the big bad dark Drag for a relationship she isn't so thrilled to be in despite being a victim puts herself back in that place for her own good and the good of the others.

We continue the new mix up that the bad guys aren't really bad guys anymore and that the real bad guys are evil or assumed to be evil must be conquered through love which is brought in by the women who don't actually do a whole lot or serve much of a purpose other than to empower the men who don't really fight anymore.

There's a lot of old dogs learning new tricks, men waiting for their child brides to grow up so that they can mate with them and be whole, crazy cameos, and some ackward not so thrilling circumstances that put it all in motion. Whats the most obvious is that despite this series being so long in installments Feehan obviously doesn't plan on stopping any time soon. This book spends a lot of time building up connecting her worlds and expanding them for more future series and installments but over all it was an okay read.

Warning: Dark Legacy contains continued topics of forced sexual interactions/ rape / dominance of women and children.

 

 

 

Until next time book lovers...

A Sensual Paranormal Romance
Dark Promises (Carpathian Novel, A) - Christine Feehan

Dark Promises was a paranormal romance that balanced good and evil, darkness and light, fear and bravery, and even dominance vs. submission. Yep…a little something for every type of reader.

 

“Lifemate. You have enough attitude for ten women.”
“Exactly.” She was more than pleased he saw that. That should send him screaming for the hills…
“I like attitude,” he whispered, his mouth against her ear.

 

This is going to be a difficult review to write without giving all of the surprises away but I’ll try my best to leave out any spoilers. As you can gather from the book synopsis, Gabrielle and Gary were the main couple this time and boy did they have some changes to endure. Their path was altered completely and it meant that for the first time Gabrielle had to learn to stand up for herself and be more self-sufficient.

Modern Alphas & Strong Heroines FTW
Dark Carousel (Carpathian Novel, A) - Christine Feehan

“I don’t need a submissive woman, Charlotte, I need a warrior. A woman walking beside me. Fighting beside me. Standing in front of those children with me… I know that woman is you.”

 

Dark and sexy alpha heroes with a heart and intelligent, beautiful heroines abound in Dark Carousel. And just when fans thought the situation between Carpathians and vampires couldn’t get any more tense, we’re proven wrong with a whole new twist added to the story.

 

I am seriously loving the latest heroes Christine Feehan has created. Now I know some readers were unhappy with how incredibly dominant the alpha males were in previous stories, both in the Dark and the GhostWalkers series, but her books so far this year have shown a much more modern version of a hero.
