Colby has been fighting to keep her ranch going since the day her stepfather died. After being disowned for marrying her mother, she knew she wouldn't get any help from his side of the family. She is preserving the ranch as her stepfather's legacy to her younger brother and sister. Now out of nowhere the family has shown up and wants to take the children away from her. They bring reinforcement in the form of the DeLaCruz brothers and the most dangerous one of all is Rafael. Colby can't explain her strange attraction to this man, who or what is he really?

Rafael has come to see women as sustenance and fears he will never feel emotions again. Then he meets Colby and she is the most courageous woman he has ever met. She is determined to protect her younger siblings and will do whatever it takes. He knows from the instant he sees her that she is his life mate and he must claim her soon. There is a darkness stalking Colby and her family and Rafael must hunt it to keep them safe. Can he convince Colby that they are meant to be together and keep her and her siblings safe from the evil that lurks in the shadows?

Dark Secret is an awesome book that continues the Dark saga and the story of the Carpathians. As most readers familiar with Christine Feehan's work knows her books are full of action, adventure, passion and of course emotional drama that keeps you hooked until the last page. Colby and Rafael are no exception; their story will certainly keep you entertained long after the book is done. I recommend that you also read the other books in the series to get the full background on the Carpathians and their history. Dark Secret is another book to go on the keeper shelf and die-hard Feehan fans will look forward to the next book in the series.
