Alexandria Houton would sacrifice anything, even her life, to protect her orphaned little brother. But when both encountered unspeakable evil in the swirling San Franscisco mists, Alex could only cry to heaven for their deliverance. Out of the darkness swooped Aidan Savage, a golden being more powerful, more mysterious than any other creature of the night. The ageless Carpathian male snatched them from a hideous fate. But was Aidan a miracle...or a monster? Alex's salvation...or her sin? If she surrendered to Aidan's savage, unearthly seduction and became his mistress of light, would he truly save her brother? Make them the whole family they both craved? Or would she end up sacrificing more than her life? Read by Juanita Parker. 12 CD's 12.1 Hrs.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you like vampire romance, get this book!, April 9, 2000

This review is from: Dark Gold (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

If you have never tried Christine Feehan's books, you don't know what you are missing. They are a new twist on the vampire legends...about a race of beings called Carpathians, who must find their lifemates in order to keep from going over to the dark side! The series is great, warning, you won't be able to stop reading them - definitely an addiction for me! Dark Gold is the 3rd in the series, following Dark Prince and Dark Desire.

Dark Gold is a book that can stand on its own if you haven't read the others in the series. A young woman named Alexandria is targeted by vampires, and she is trying to protect her young brother. Just when things are at their worst, a golden being, Aidan, appears and saves them. Or has he? Is he a god, a man, or a monster? Alex must decide, and her decision could condemn them to death, or give them life, and love for all eternity.

This is a wonderful, sensuous book, that you will not be able to put down. Once you've read it, you will probably be as addicted as I am!

5.0 out of 5 stars 3rd Greatest Hit, April 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Dark Gold (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is great. The character Aidan, who has a twin brother named Julian, is an ancient. If you have not read either Dark Prince which is the story of Raven and Mikhail. You should! The series starts off sizzling and just keeps getting hotter from the first page to the last page. The next book is that of Jacque & Shea. It is also a great book, and it deals with the tortures that the Carpathians suffer or can suffer from ignorant human being that fear what they do not, and never hope to comprehend. I recommend this book wholeheartedly. Aidan is a golden god! He even turns into a beautiful golden eagle. He has also been the ONLY Carpathian to have a "family" that is not Carpathian. The book is great and I recommend it to one and all.

This review is from: Dark Gold (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

I was talked into trying the first of the Carpathian series, Dark Prince -- and was immediately hooked. I've read all three books now and am impatiently waiting for Gregori's story. (hurry up July! ) What I loved most about the heroes is how protective and strong they are, emotionally and physically. The books are fantasy based but the emotions are everything we want in reality. It was wonderful, too, how the author made each book unique. Dark Prince oozes sensuality and is the perfect introduction to the Carpathians. Dark Desire is darker, more intense, and while we still get the setting and sense of the Carpathians and their world, we get a story totally different for the characters. The same is true of Dark Gold, which was lighter, more playful. They're all very sexy with to die for heroes who have larger-than-life abilities (which make them the ultimate alpha guys!) and intelligent heroines, but the characters have their own individual personalities, too. This is by far the most entertaining, original series of books I've found in a long, long time. I highly recommend them all.
