Summary: Dark Desire
Comment: The sequel to Dark Prince was everything I had hoped for and more. Jacques, the egotistical brother to DP's hero Mikhail and a very likable character, was tortured, staked through the chest (but not the heart), and left locked in a coffin in the basement of an abandoned cottage for seven years. In all that time, his only tie to sanity was a tenuous mental link across the ocean with another woman, one he believes to be his traitor but is his lifemate. Shea O'Halloran, an American doctor, doesn't know the dreams she's been having for years are about a real man until she finds him locked in a coffin with a stake through the chest in the Carpathian mountains. She feels drawn to this man whom she believes has the same blood disease she does, but as she tries to help this tortured man who claims she is his life mate she comes across the secret to her own past. I really, really loved the hero in this book. Christine Feehan had taken the tortured hero to a new level, yet let us retain our pity and adoration for him. Jacques is the epitome of a tortured hero, and those who read the previous book may feel more deeply the loss of the funloving yet sarcastic brother. The heroine is strong as well; she has to be to be able to put up with/recuperate the tortured Jacques. We also get a glimpse at the previous characters and get some ideas on future book characters. I very much recommend this book, whether you like vampire romances or not.

Summary: A Wonderful Series With Heroes to Die For
Comment: I picked up Dark Desire as soon as I finished Dark Prince thinking there was no way it could be as good. It surpassed Dark Prince and left me wanting more of the Carpathian men. Thank goodness I had bought all the books the day before and could continue reading this wonderful series.
Jacques Dubrinsky, brother to Michail from Dark Prince, falls into the hands of vampire hunters. Not satisfied with just killing him, they torture him and bury him alive with a stake in his chest. Jacques cries out for help and is heard by Shea O'Halloran, a surgeon in the United States. When she doesn't come to his rescue, he assumes she was a part of the group who hurt him so badly and is consumed by hatred for her. In the meantime, Shea thinks she is losing her mind. She doesn't understand the voice in her head and the pain that doubles her over when he mind links with her. When she is finally compelled to travel thousands of miles to the Carpathian Mountains, she encounters Jacques, who is on the brink of madness. Bewildered that he could still be alive after seven years, she is forced to believe in things her scientific mind can hardly comprehend. Having lived with her own blood disease and on the run from others who knew about it, she believes he is a fellow sufferer and a victim of these same people.
Christine Feehan has created a race of people who are fascinating and very sexy. The men are arrogant and bossy but falling in love with their life mates make them the perfect heroes. I think Christine Feehan must have reached into women's minds and created the men of their fantasies and then added her own special touch. I know she has exceeded any hero I ever created.

Summary: the 1st book i read in the 'Dark' series
Comment: This was the first book that I read by Christine Feehan, & it's a very good book. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 B/c, although the story is very gripping, the villain didn't put up a long enough fight towards the end... it ended in like 2 paragraphs! ~**slash-slash*-*swoosh*-*claw*-*gasp... dead**~ Don't get me wrong- it has a lovely ending! And I would recommend Christine Feehan as much as I would Kinley MacGregor & Sherrilyn Kenyon! Boo~ya!!!
