A rumor has persisted in the vampire world of a dark slayer—a woman—who travels with a wolf pack and who destroys any vampire who crosses her path. Mysterious, elusive and seemingly impossible to kill, she is the one hunter who strikes terror into the hearts of the undead.
She is Ivory Malinov. Her only brethren, the wolves. Long ago betrayed by her people, abandoned by her family, and cast out by everyone she held dear, Ivory has lived a century without companionship or love. She has sustained her sanity by the habit of the hunt and the custom of the feeding. Until the night she picks up the scent of a man, her unexpected salvation. Her lifemate. The curse of all Carpathian women.
He is Razvan. Branded a criminal, detested and feared, he is a dragonseeker borne of one of the greatest Carpathian lineages, only to be raised as its most despised—and captive—enemy. Fleeing from his lifetime of imprisonment, Razvan now seeks the dawn to end his terrible existence. Instead he has found his deliverance in the Dark Slayer.
In spirit, in flesh and blood, in love, and in war, Ivory and Razvan are made for each other. For as long as they dare to live.

My appreciation for this series has been lagging for some time so I was pleasantly surprised to enjoy this latest book as much as I did.
I like this book because it tells the story from a woman carpatian point of view.
There is no struggle between the lifemates, they just accept it.

Ivory Malinov has become one of my favourite female characters.
She is the Dark Slayer with a tragic past of betrayal and suffering. But she has risen above all her trials and makes a life for herself that is interesting and fulfilling after centuries alone.
While I did enjoy this story very much I also had some negatives.
First, I thought the battle scenes went on and on until tiresome as the time the characters took to heal from these battles just went on and on as well.
I do enjoy the vampire battles, but over 150 pages of mostly fighting seemed too much for me, I skimmed a lot of pages.
Anyway, one of the best book of the series I ‘ve read.
