Dark Celebration is a paranormal/suspense novel written by American author Christine Feehan.

Jacques' lifemate Shea is due to give birth at any time and the women feel that a gathering of the Carpathian community will help aid her.

Before the celebration begins, Mikhail feels obliged to visit all of the Carpathian couples and we are given slices of life from lifemates in previous books.

All the while there is a plot set by their enemies in an effort to destroy the Prince and the Carpathian people, making this a Dark Celebration.

Unlike other books in the series this one is unique offering glimpses of life from previous characters from the series as well as introducing new characters without having a main couple.
