Ally Stanford has led a pretty easy life in a family that has always loved and backed her and Ally loved them back.  Yet one night Ally learns that all she has believed was a lie and on that night her entire family was killed by demons.  Yes, she was told they were demons by the sexy man who not only fought the two demons but also rescued her.  Ally is having trouble figuring out just what reality is right now but she knows one thing – Draven is a sexy bad boy who makes her happy to be a girl.

Draven is an immortal warrior and one of the Guardians.  That fateful night, Draven had been out doing his job and just walking through the neighborhood and was amazed to find two well-known demons had slaughtered a family and was now after a young woman.  Draven knows it is his responsibility to kill the demons if possible and to keep Ally safe until he and his fellow Guardians can figure out what is behind the attack and why they wanted Ally.

As Draven and Ally work together to find out just what was behind Ally’s attack, they are finding out that there is something strange with Ally’s background.  The attraction between Draven and Ally spikes up each time they see each other and explodes into love.  Just when Ally and Draven think they might have a path forward together even if not all of the questions are answered.  Ally finds out just who she is and that knowledge will rip her away from Draven.  Fearing for Draven’s life, Ally agrees to forsake him and leave.  Draven on the other hand, is willing to fight for Ally even if it means taking on a foe that he really can’t hope to beat.  Together again, Ally and Draven get the final answers on what is happening and how Ally fits in.  But will this knowledge tear them apart a second time or be the final key that keeps them together as they wait for the next battle?

Extreme violence brings two unlikely people together and leads to a love that not even the gods can tear apart.  Dark Seduction brings Draven and Ally together in a night of horror that quickly turns into a night of simmering heat.  I was amazed at the many twists and turns that Ally and Draven had to go through in order to find a path that would allow their love to flourish.  There were so many times when I thought circumstances might finally tear Draven and Ally apart and yet their love always found a way to overcome.  I loved how Draven knew he needed Ally and his actions were always based on that fact.  For such a young woman, Ally surprised me in how she was able to keep up with the reality changes and still know what her heart needed.  The final answers on just who Ally’s parents were was a shock and yet said so much about her.  Dark Seduction constantly twisted passion and danger together with many game changers that keep it a page-turner.
