Book excerpt: Her head tells her he’s an impudent rake. So why does the rest of her still want him? Mai knows to beware of ever drawing any carnal interest, and has learned to never lower her guard. Despite how isolated her cynical manner has made her within the newly resurrected Dark Court, she cannot imagine letting anyone closer, not while the court is focused on defeating a powerful evil intent on destroying their world. So why do her eyes always turn to the arrogant commander who flirts as much as he breathes, and whose mysterious past makes him her most dangerous ally? Propriety has always attracted him—the stiffer the better. What a contemptible pleasure it would be reducing hers to ash… Rosuke has been drawn to the fiery valor within Mai’s walled-off heart since the moment he met her, but he's held back from melting her icy reserve, all too aware of how unworthy he is of her. But the moment he overhears the reason she keeps her distance—and that she wishes to understand why the pursuit of pleasure can become an obsession—he sets out to fulfill her wish, hoping to atone for his shameful past before time runs out and a hopeless war begins… ♥♥♥ Drawn into Oblivion is a full-length "dark lite" fantasy romance featuring demons, magic powers, and a steamy romance between a 300-plus-year-old reformed rake and the resolute court Elder struggling to resist him. If you like magical battles with demons, two lovers who learn to trust and heal, slow seductions, and happily ever afters, you'll love Drawn into Oblivion.
