출판사 설명
In this thrilling novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling Carpathian series, Christine Feehan presents the story of one of the oldest Carpathians as he meets the woman meant to be his...
Blinded and scarred in a terrible accident, Antoinetta Scarletti made music that thrilled the world with its beauty and passion. Descended from a long line of psychics, Antoinetta has learned to rely on her other senses to “see” the world around her, but nothing could have prepared her for Byron.
He came to her, drawn by her music, and became her secret obsession. Others fear him, sensing that he is dangerous—a predator—but for Antoinetta he is her ultimate fantasy, her dream lover. He woos her with kisses full of erotic allure, whispering that she is his light, his salvation. Byron has waited an eternity for her, and he will let nothing stand between him and the woman born to be his lifemate...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Feehan's followers will be well sated by the latest addition to her Dark series (after Dark Guardian), set in modern-day Italy. This time around the focus is on Carpathian vampire hunter Byron Justicano, a "good" vampire who feeds only to sustain himself. He is drawn to the haunting music created by Italian concert pianist, Antonietta Scarletti, the woman he has chosen to be his "lifemate." Blinded and orphaned as a child by an explosion on the family yacht, Antonietta, a strong psychic, is heir to the Scarletti family fortune and the massive Scarletti palazzo, which accommodates all her relatives. When Byron learns that someone within the family is siphoning off the family treasures and slowly poisoning Antonietta, her grandfather and her cousin, he draws upon his supernatural powers to catch the villain. Feehan's prose is smoothly laced with romance and erotica, and the subject matter is titillating. But new readers may be daunted by the complexity of the Carpathian world, which has its own set of rules (e.g., Carpathian males can mate for life only with mortals who are psychic, and if they don't mate, they lose their emotions). Once readers gain a foothold in Feehan's fictional realm, however, they'll be roped in by this unconventional and intriguing installment.

Definitely the best of series! So far.
Great read
This book isn't the traditional "Dark Novel". It really reads differently then her traditional novels. I enjoyed this book a little bit more then some of the other books. This one is more of a traditional romance book with more action and more people knowing about the "secrets" of our main characters. I am pleased with the ending of this book. I would recommend this book very highly.
Dark Symphony
I have read many of this authors books about The Carpathian's n been a fan but this was my least favorite of her books. It was endless drama in this Italian family! It made me want to have this young male fly away n into the dawn rather enter into the abyss of family in-fighting and into the "duh, how will we ever figure out who the Jaguar is?" Just end my pain already! Finished it because I'm stubborn but it was painful. Skip this book! Let me clue you in Bryron finds his lifemate! Whew!
