Dark Memory (A Carpathian Novel Book 37)
by Christine Feehan
About this book
Safia Meziane is a fierce protector trained from birth to guard her Algerian tribe, but she is unprepared for the ancient, invisible evil creeping into her coastal home. Raised on legends she once dismissed as folklore, she now discovers her fate is inextricably linked to an outsider. Bound by a promise made long ago, she must join forces with a mysterious warrior to save everything she holds dear.
Enter Petru Cioban, an immortal Carpathian warrior who has spent two millennia searching for his lifemate. When he finally finds her, she is trapped in the crosshairs of a monstrous enemy from his own past. Their connection is a complex web of second-chance romance and high-stakes peril, haunted by a dark betrayal Petru struggles to reconcile with his desperate need for redemption. As the memories of her previous life begin to resurface, Safia must decide if their bond can survive the weight of his ancient secrets.
This gripping installment in the long-running Carpathian series delivers a masterclass in urban fantasy romance. By blending intense enemies-to-lovers tension with a heartwarming found-family dynamic, Feehan crafts a story that feels both epic and intimate. It is a must-read for fans of paranormal romance who crave deep emotional stakes.

I love Christine Feehan's books. I have read them for years. This has to be in the top, if not the best. I loved the pace, all the characters, and the story. I loved the step back from male dominance and the characters as people you could relate to. A great read, highly recommend!!! )

The family is so very special in the story and the reader ends up laughing and crying right along with them. This book is going to be one of my very favorites from the series and will be reread many times. )

It makes me sad that I have to wait until next year to read the next book. I know it takes time to write these books, but I already read this series before a year ago besides this one book that I just finished. I thought if I started over again, there would be more new ones waiting by the time I caught back up again. Only One NEW book waited for me. I guess it comes from writing so many other series of books along side. I do know this writer does a lot of research to take us to the different...

I’ve been loving all the series over the past couple of years of CF’s writing. Dark Memory continues that renewed focus on compelling action-packed plot and chemistry over filler pages of Carpathian chants, sex scenes, and endless fight scenes. Here, once again much like with the early books in the series, the balance is just right and we are able to focus on Petru and Safia’s connection as they try to save her family farm from the evil Lilith. I found the story to be perfectly-paced. It was...
