Darkest at Dawn
by Christine Feehan
In one volume for the first time—a Carpathian novel and novella from the #1 New York Times bestselling author.
For the first time together, two of Christine Feehan’s most seductive tales of savage prey and sensual predators: DARK SECRET, the story of a vampire hunter on the scent of a human female; and DARK HUNGER, which tells of a caged Carpathian, his thirst for vengeance, and his lust for the woman who will release him.
DARK SECRET (originally published February 2005)
Rafael De La Cruz has spent centuries hunting vampires with his brothers, and with each passing year his capacity to feel emotions has grown weaker and weaker until finally there’s barely been a memory left—until only sheer willpower keeps him from turning into the very abomination he hunts. But it’ll take more than will to keep him away from the woman who is meant to be his and his alone...
For five years, rancher Colby Jansen has been the sole protector of her younger half-siblings, and with fierce determination and work she has kept her family together and the ranch operational. Now, the De La Cruz brothers are threatening that stability. They claim that her siblings belong with their father’s family, not with her. Colby vows to fight them—especially the cold and arrogant Rafael De La Cruz. But Rafael is after more than her family—he wants Colby and will not let anything stand between them. After ages of loneliness, the raw desire to possess her overwhelms his very soul, driving him to claim her as his lifemate....
DARK HUNGER (originally published September 2004 in the HOT BLOODED anthology)
In a dark jungle, a beautiful activist liberates animals from a secret laboratory—and stumbles across an unexpected prisoner. She releases the Carpathian from his bonds—only to unleash his voracious appetite on herself...

Christine Feehan's Bio
I've been a writer all of my life -- it is who I am. I write for myself and always have. The ability to create pictures and emotions with words is such a miracle to me. I read everything. I mean everything. All kinds of books, even encyclopedias. I am fascinated by the written word and I love storytellers. It is a great privilege to be counted one myself.
