Plot Summary of Dark Magic
"Dark Magic is the fourth book in Christine Feehan's "Dark Series"
Gregori knew from the moment of her conception that Savannah Dubrinsky was his lifemate, the one who could bring light to his darkness. Savannah, craving independence, fled Gregori five years ago and went to America, hoping to escape her destiny and the fire that burned in her soul when Gregori came near. Finding her right when she needs him most, Gregori takes Savannah into his arms and across the continent, seducing her with his heart and eyes, showing her exactly how deep Carpathian love can go."

Meredith Griffin, Resident Scholar
