DARK MAGIC is one of the earlier books in the Dark
series. It gives readers Gregori and Savannah's story.
Gregori is Prince Mikhail's best friend and his life mate is
Mikhail's daughter. Gregori has known that Savannah is
destined for him but he has doubts because of his actions
during Raven's pregnancy. Savannah and Gregori's connection
cannot be denied and the two must figure it all out and
decide if they will follow their hearts and let fate happen.
I loved both Savannah and Gregori. He has been a fixture in
these books and I was excited to see Gregori get his story
told. It was nice to see that Savannah is a strong woman who
holds her own with Gregori. I enjoyed seeing the softer side
of Gregori. He is such a strong and imposing figure but he
cared for and loves Savannah with all his heart. The two are
a good couple and work well together. I enjoyed seeing their
relationship take shape.
Gregori is a very protective man
and he must learn to cooperate with Savannah and deal with
the many new emotions that she brings out in him. Savannah
is strong and believes in the man Gregori can and is. She
shows him love like no other and brings out a side of the
man that has been hidden all these years. Gregori is a
tortured man and when he finally cannot fight it anymore he
goes to Savannah and did what he had to do. It was nice to
see the two work through so much and help each other to
understand.
Both of these characters are strong in their own
way and add to each other when they are together. Savannah
sees the true man that Gregori is and not the monster he is
made out to be and Gregori loves Savannah so much that he
risks himself to give her the freedom that she wanted. Their
story moves at along at a nice pace and has a good mix of
romance and angst making DARK MAGIC a good addition to this
series.
Young Savannah Dubrinsky was a mistress of illusion, a
world-famous magician capable of mesmerizing millions. But
there was one—Gregori, the Dark One—who held her in
terrifying thrall. Whose cold silver eyes and heated
sensuality sent shivers of danger, of desire, down her spine.
With a dark magic all his own, Gregori—the implacable
hunter, the legendary healer, the most powerful of
Carpathian males—whispered in Savannah’s mind that he was
her destiny. That she had been born to save his immortal
soul. And now, here in New Orleans, the hour had finally
come to claim her. To make her completely his. In a ritual
as old as time . . . and as inescapable as eternity.
