Dark Celebration

I'm about to re-read Dark Celebration by Christine Feehan. This was the first book I read in her Carpathian series (not the first book in the series, only the first one I read) and I really liked it. Her other Carpathian books focus on one couple but this one is like a Carpathian reunion so it focuses on several different couples and their families. Here is the summary from the inside cover:

They seek liberation through their unspeakable desires. They find deliverance in forbidden fantasies. They are drawn to their lifemates after centuries of wanting. Vampires, shapeshifters, hunters, demons, lovers, healers, seducers and betrayers.

You are cordially invited to attend...

With her erotically charged Carpathian tales, Christine Feehan has enthralled a legion of fans, captivated by a strangely seductive world and the unforgettable characters - both human and not - who inhabit ti. Now she reunites them all in a Dark Celebration...

But even with his own lifemate, Raven, and their daughter, Savannah, vulnerable to the encroaching evil, Mikhail's hope is not lost...
