I bought DRAWN on a whim and because of the cover art.  I'm an avid manga reader and figured why the hell not.  And I was seriously, happily surprised.  This book is AMAZING.  It has the manga feel without the pictures but the author writes in such a way that you can easily picture it all.  It has the Japanese manga feel, from the half Japanese love interest to the aspiring Mangaka, to snippits of the Japanese language.  DRAWN will make your inner fan girl scream and blush, while you laugh out loud, yell at the main characters and cheer them on all at the same time.  This is definitely for an 18+ audience though.  I will say that though there are no actual sex scenes the scenes that the author does have are more than enough to satisfy you.KC is an aspiring Mangaka who gets her inspiration for her writing from her vivid, avid erotic fantasies.  The latest object of her desires is Yuki, a half Japanese student in a few of her classes who one afternoon catches her moaning his name while in the middle of yet another fantasy.  This encounter sets the action for the story where he talks her into being his "toy" with her stipulation of no sex.  But man oh man does he make her want to throw her convictions to the wind and shag him like crazy.  His only rule is no falling in love with him.  So starts their wild, secret relationship which is by no means an easy one.  Between the complexity of their relationship, her up and coming career, High School life and snobby girls, family issues- on both sides, the author easily holds your interest while keeping you in suspense as to what will happen.I absolutely recommend this book for anyone who loves their shoujo with a dash of smut and enjoys being utterly captivated by the characters and storyline.  Read DRAWN, you won't regret it.
