This is a tightly woven, fast paced story with unusual twists and turns. Move over Kenyon, more beasts are on the prowl. The wait for the rest of the series will be painful.

Wow, Ms. Dodd has quite a nack for the paranormal romance. Interesting start to this series. A deal struck w/the devil over 1000 years ago has a family trying to break the curse. This is Jasha (the oldest son) and Ann's story. There is a great story with terrific characters. These 2 people have worked together & she has loved him from the beginning but they both have secrets (he can turn into a wolf & she has a tattoo that comes to life & brings evil to her). Also a great love story. Looking forward to the next book with Jasha's brother Rurik.

To me the mark of a good book in a series is if you want to read the next one - I do! A thousand years ago, a brutal warrior roamed the Russian steppes and struck a sinister bargain. In return for the ability to change at will into a coldhearted predator, Konstantine promised his soul - and the souls of his descendants - to the devil. In the first of the series Jasha Wilder and Ann Smith confront the results of that pact in modern day America.

This was really a good book from start to finish, the characters were a great combo with awesome chemistry. Very hot, from the first few chapters in.

Interesting storyline with likable characters. Worth the read.

I was reluctant to try this one, thought it might be just another vampire type story, but I should have known that this author would do better. A little out of the norm, but I'll probably read the next in this series just to see how she allows the characters to overcome evil.

Overall I was disappointed. I had heard great things about theis series and I found it tedious and forgetable. Ms. Dodd really drug out some parts that could have been expedited. I am in no hurry to get to book #2 "Touch of Darkness".

An excellant book. I've been searching for different books by authors I've never read before. And its very hard for me to find an author that writes good and has interesting books. And I have. Man, Christina Dodd is right up there with Sherrilyn Kenyon, Kresley Cole, and my favorite the author of the Carpathian men. Christine Feehan.
Her love scenes are dark and erotic, sometimes rough in the beginning of this story. And her use of words, the imagery she uses, makes you feel as if you were Ann. And the second book is just as good, and I am anxiously awaiting the third one.

this is a very good book. it's the first of a new series and it's different than the other paranormal fiction. i've read the second one as well and they are written very well. you really fall in love with the characters.

Jennifer C. (This is the first book of Dodd's that I ever read. I picked it up at a Thrift store in like new condition. It was a great book, and I'm glad I had a chance to read it. I loved the story line, and the Wilder Brothers are just hot!
Cynthia F. (First in the Darkness Chosen series. Good read: shifters, thousand-year-old curses - what more could you ask for?
I loved this book. was a fast read that kept me captivated! I will read her books anytime!
Leslie R. from ELWOOD, IN wrote on 4/17/2008...Wonderful effort at supernatural romance. I loved it and read it straight through. 1st in a series of 4. I immediately read the second in the series and can not wait for the other 2. Dodd is always a good read in contemporary romance. She rocks with the supernatural as well!!
I was so excited when I heard about this series and I really wanted to like it. It started off excellent, but kinda started to drizzle mid way. I decided to pick-up the second in the series to see if it was better.
