Dark Legacy…. A Carpathian Novel by Christine Feehan
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…
For her beauty is irresistible to the vampires, her psychic ability like a drug. Whipped into a frenzy, they’ll never stop coming for her. And only the taste of one Carpathian warrior – the rush of his blood – can save her…
My Review …..
We first met Emeline in Dark Crime (sheโs Blazeโs Best Friend) sheโs a woman with a terrible secret, she is terrified that once the others find out she will be thrown out of the compound she has found sanctuary in.
Dragomir was first introduced to us in the book Dark Promises. He is a scarred ancient, having lived for centuries battling both the vampires and the demon inside him, heโs given a slim chance of hope (heโs been told his lifemate resides in America) so leaving the safety of the monastery heโs lived in for a while, Dragomir sets off for America (there he helps Tariq and Maksim rescue women and children from a master vampire.) keeping his distance from the humans that live in the compound, he spends his time sleeping in the ground and keeping the vampires away from the children and the women.
We have a huge battle early in the book, the master vampire wants Emeline, so he throws everything at the compound, telling her that everyone will die if she doesnโt come out. Trying to keep everyone safe is all she wants to do, but when Dragomir is injured, she has to do something…..
Just when he thinks itโs all over, he hears a voice, and his whole world changes….. Emeline is his!!! And sheโs being chased by the vampire…..
The story of Emeline and Dragomir is a really good read, how each must learn to trust in one another. How both must find their way in this new and strange world. Iโll
This book is a great read, lots of action and fighting.
