    About this audiobook

    In the new novel by the #1 New York Times bestselling "queen of paranormal romance," (J.R. Ward) a wounded warrior and a woman on the run find salvation, passion and unimaginable danger in the ghostly darkness of the Carpathian Mountains…
     
    He wasn't civilized or tame. He had his own code and he lived by it.

    Monk. Bounty hunter. Vampire slayer. Andre Boroi has spent centuries battling the undead, holding out against the dark with honor. But now, gravely wounded by master vampire Costin Popescu, Andre will be easy to track-his spilled blood marking the killing trail for Popescu and his hungry band of underlings. Andre's only chance is to disappear into the gray mist of the Carpathians. To wait. To hope.
     
    She had a healing touch and a scent that was his lifeblood.
     
    In the mountains in search of a precious crystal, geologist Teagan Joanes suddenly finds herself hunted by those she once trusted. Then she comes across the warrior-wounded, wanting and irresistible. Andre has been craving her for an eternity: his lifemate. Her warmth envelops him. Her scent pulsates. And with every beat of her heart, Teagan surrenders to a passion she can't possibly comprehend.
     
    Now they are bound by destiny, but is it enough to keep them safe from a stalking, relentless darkness that threatens to swallow them alive?

      I have loved every single book of the Dark series that has been written, and this one is no different. It is written so wonderfully, I can "see a movie" playing out in my mind while I read it. The only "downfall" of this book is that it had to have an ending so now I'm done and I have to wait until the next book in the series is available. I guess the fact that I am addicted to these Carpathian men makes me want these books to be never ending. Honestly though, you will not regret buying this book, or any of them in this series.

      This was a good story. I am glad Andre has a lifemate and she is part African American. However, I think she rambled too much. We are very logical as well as fun-loving people. Teagan is very intelligent but she doesn't let Andre explain situations to her fully enough. I really want to see Andre & Teagan interact with other Carpathians in the future. Such as Gregori, Mikhail, etc. Looking forward to Dark Promises!

      This was one of the best Dark Series books yet. The interplay between the modern heroine and the ancient warrior was great.

      Dark Desire is the 2nd book in Christine Feehan’s Dark (Carpathian) series. It picks up roughly 20-25 years after the events of Dark Prince. And this installment centers on Mikhail’s brother, Jacques.A quick review of the mythology of the series: There’s an ancient race of people who hail from the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. They drink blood; they can shapeshift and speak telepathically; they can’t go in the sun. And after about 200 years, their men lose their emotions and their ability to see in color. That is, until they find the other half of their souls… their lifemates. Over time, living without a lifemate leaves a Carpathian man with two choices: ending his life or turning into a vampire, an evil being who lives to torment and kills his victims.So, at the beginning of our story, poor Jacques has been kidnapped and tortured by some vampire hunters. Ironically, their strings are being pulled by a real vampire, and they are targeting the good Carpathians. Anyway, Jacques is tortured within an inch of his life, and is then buried alive in a coffin, where he suffers for seven years. During that time, his mind reaches out to Shea, the lifemate he has never met.By the time seven years are done, Jacques is just about crazy. He doesn’t remember who he is. And Shea is the only thing he knows, beyond his hate and quest for vengeance. He lures Shea from the US to Romania to free him. In all the years he had been making contact with her, Shea didn’t even believe he was real… until she found him.Once she comes to his gravesite, Shea frees Jacques and tries to heal him, as she is a doctor. He, not fully healed, ravages her and takes her blood. In fact, he goes on to perform the required three blood transfers required to turn a human into a Carpathian. Despite his brutality and his serious mental and physical problems, Shea feels connected with Jacques. She reveals that even before the conversion, she was different from most humans. It turns out her father, Rand, was Carpathian. She never knew him. In fact, he left her mother before she was ever born and the loss of him drove her mom crazy. Shea grew up basically alone and had to deal with her physical differences on her own.Jacques’ madness is very sad, since we knew him as a sweet and easygoing guy in Dark Prince (Book #1). And it’s wonderful to see Mikhail, Gregori, and others as they find the man they thought long dead.There’s plenty of action as the vampire hunters search for Shea and the other Carpathians. The love scenes are hot, and fortunately, not quite as flowery as in the previous book. And it’s high drama when the identity of the vampire is finally revealed.A great chapter in the Dark Carpathian series. 4 1/2 stars.

      This is the second book in the Dark/Carpathian series. This is a very dark story that will have some feeling uncomfortable. What Jacques endures and lives through for seven years is truly terrible. I love how he finds his way back and is able to carve a new life from all the destruction. I also love the way the Mikhail and Gregori snipe at each other throughout the book. It is a nice touch of humor in such a dark story. Shea is also a very troubled character. There is so little love in her life and she is so afraid of commitment. She and Jacques are actually perfect for each other. Shea also has a smart mouth and a very sharp sense of humor that holds her in good stead. This is a good book if those that are reading it for the first time will remember when it was written. Story were so very different 11 years ago.
    • 3/5
      Ummm.... it's better than the first in the series, anyway. There's a bit of power-dominance-rape that the women like a LOT, but it's not nearly as annoying as it was in book one.There is also a lot of descriptions of the main character's 'masculine aggression' and 'masculine passion' and 'masculine power'... gag.Please, Feehan, can you SHOW us this passion and power and etc and stop telling us that it's so masculine?There isn't as much sex as in the first book either, but what is there is just as flowery (i.e. her velvety fire)... personally I like sex that is sex, not some adjective convention.Ultimately, though, it's only about half as 'eye-rolly' as the first book was.
    • 3/5
      I have to say that I like that the author is consistent with personality types but the one thing I do not like is the constant male domineering act. I think I remember that it gets less as the series goes on but in the first two books it was a little overbearing.
    • 5/5
      Jacques was my favorite from Dark Prince so when I seen that Dark Desire was his book I was so happy. I loved him and Shea together. I have read this book more than once!
    • 5/5
      This book is a classic for a number of reasons. It uses unusual characters, settings, and plot to create a beautiful love story. Jacques is a member of the Carpathian race, a unique group of people with special mystical abilities. To humans he is seen as evil. He has been captured by human vampire slayers, tortured, and buried alive. Years pass before Shea, a human doctor with psychic abilities, discovers and rescues Jacques. Through his madness and rage he recognizes her as his lifemate. And she, against all odds, finds herself equally drawn to him. Shea is a likable character, and her development throughout the story is both interesting and realistic. Jacques is surprisingly romantic for a mad man. He tries to take care of Shea despite his pain. The story of their love overall is intricate and fascinating. Anyone who has read Dark Prince, the first book in this series, will really appreciate the return of past characters. They continue to grow and develop. I highly recommend this series to fans of paranormal romance. In many ways it is the standard by which others are compared.
    • 3/5
      Meh, again. I don't mind dark books, but I do mind dark and humorless. The characters aren't compelling, and their relationship is 1950s and not in a fun way (well, he's 1950 and she's 1970). I feel like this story could have been told in about half the number of pages, it's samey and stagnant.
    • 5/5
      This book is much different than I expected. To begin with our Life Mates, Jaques and Shea, aren't even on the same continent! Jaques is walled up in a coffin, and Shea is a doctor in the United States. Plus, she's only Half human, but she doesn't know that. Jaques is intent to just torment her. His mind has been shattered since the end of [The Dark Prince] and he has no idea who he is or who this woman is that he can talk to in his head. Shea has no idea that Jaques is real, or why she keeps seeing him and HEARING him in her head.A very interesting story that surprised me. I loved this book and have a feeling it will be my favorite of the series. Though I'm sure Feehan will continue to surprise me.
    • 4/5
      Seven years of nightmares, the pain, the visions of a haunted and tormented man. Surgeon Shea O’Halloran grew used to seeing this man, almost expected him. Jacques Dubrinsky saw a woman, he had lost his connection with his family, but he could see her, he could cause her pain. She was one of them, it was because of her that he was trapped and in so much pain, he wanted to cause her pain. Shea had no way of knowing that the man, the torment, the pain was all real until she went to the Carpathian Mountains to do research. Shea felt drawn to the old burned out house, to the cellar, to the man. Jacques madness and memory loss left him with only his anger, revenge and this strange desire to never leave Shea, she was his only connection to anything other than the pain. She could fix his body if he let her, she wanted to fix his head, his heart, and his soul. Jacques finally realized she was not to blame, but had he pushed her too far, would she ever forgive him for the harsh way he treated her?Book 2 - Such a harsh seven years for Jacques to endure, the madness could be expected, making him the typical tortured soul hero. He is a brute and Shea is ignorant of any of her connection to him and his race. Took me quite a while to figure out that this story takes place about 25 years after ‘Dark Prince’. Still never explained why the only connection that Jacques made during his paralysis was with Shea, across the ocean, I suppose it was a lifemate thing but I was never really sure. This is another good story to add to the depth of the characters of Mikhail, Raven, Gregori, Byron and Aidan but the romance between Jacques and Shea was predictable. I really hope that Jacques mind can return enough to go back to a little of himself from ‘Dark Prince’, can’t wait to see what happens next.
    • 4/5
      I didn't enjoy this one quite as much as the first in the series. The language was a bit repetitive. All in all it was a good story though. After book one, the story I was most looking forward to was Gregori's story. Now after reading this one, I'm even more excited to find out what happens to him. Unfortunately, I will have to wait for book four. Jacques was a great hero - very tormented but inherently good. This is a really interesting series
    • 3/5
      Better than the first in the series, and a decent read for he pure sake of entertainment.
    • 3/5
      Jaques Dubrinsky was trapped in a coffin and left to die but he lived and survived for 7 years. Shea O'Halloran finds him buried in the Carpathian Mountain. Could he be the missing link to her strange blood sickness or has she stumbled upon more than a coffin?Good book. Not one of my faves but it is ok. You need to read this before Dark Gold and Dark Magic.
