DARK CAROUSEL is Book 30 in Christine Feehan's Dark
series. DARK CAROUSEL is a great book for readers new to
Christine Feehan's Dark series to dive into. One
of the
supporting characters in this book - Blaze -- appears in
the short story "Dark Crime" from the anthology EDGE OF
DARKNESS, so it might be a good idea to at least read
that story before this one. Christine Feehan combines
carousel imagery that is both strangely beautiful and at
other times terrifying. In addition to the satisfying
love story, DARK CAROUSEL tells a story of a strong
family fighting together against the forces of evil.
Tariq Asenguard hooked me from the start because it is
amazingly clear from the first moment he comes into
contact with Charlotte that he is all about making his
woman happy and protecting her along with those they both
care about. Other Carpathian men might have the same
priorities, but I like Tariq's style and the way he
expresses his feelings for Charlotte. Tariq's strength
and sexual charisma tempered with the gentle way he
treats Charlotte makes him a great hero and my favorite
type of Carpathian hottie. Tariq makes Charlotte aware of
the dangerous realities they are confronted with but he's
not as aggressive in his delivery as some other
Carpathian men might be. I like that Charlotte is able to
see the big picture and not give Tariq too hard a time
about his methods of protection. I really like the way
Tariq and Charlotte's personalities mesh and how they
work together as a team.
DARK CAROUSEL is such a fascinating story for me because
I love that there is a strong family unit and army of
good guys on one side and an army of thoroughly
despicable bad guys on the other. Even the children in
DARK CAROUSEL are fighters and they and the psychic women
are not discounted from being warriors. The scenes in
which Tariq and his makeshift family offer each other
support are particularly poignant and just as powerful as
the epic battle scenes, and the more romantic and erotic
moments between Tariq and Charlotte. This is a book that
will have you cheering the characters along.
DARK CAROUSEL is a lush and deeply sensual romance with a
story that has an energy and excitement that is
infectious. The scenes involving dragons are especially
enchanting and create a vivid and joyful image. The
friendships between the women in DARK CAROUSEL add depth
to an already engaging story. I can't wait to see what's
in store for some of my favorite supporting characters in
DARK CAROUSEL in future books.
In the new Carpathian novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan, a woman falls prey to the seductive allure of the past—and a vampire warrior’s intoxicating embrace... The moment Charlotte Vintage walks into his club, Tariq Asenguard’s blood is set on fire. The ancient Carpathian had given up hope of finding his lifemate, but now he will do anything to make Charlotte his own. What Tariq doesn’t know is that Charlotte is using herself and her best friend as bait—to try to draw out the bloodthirsty killers who have already murdered Charlotte’s brother and mentor. Charlotte is familiar with Tariq. Not only is he one of the richest and most eligible bachelors in the city, but he’s also a renowned collector of old carousel horses, which Charlotte restores. Their shared passion opens Charlotte up to trusting him with her life and with the desire she can no longer control. But it also makes her vulnerable to a centuries-old curse that will unite her and Tariq in a war against the enemies of humans and Carpathians alike...
