About this book
I wasn’t created to love, only to destroy, but fate doesn’t ask permission.
I wake to a world in chaos, the taste of stardust on my tongue and fragments of galaxies burning behind my eyes.
No name, past, or idea of how I came to be here.
In the ruins of a battlefield, four kings of this new world find me abandoned and alone. Each of them desperate to decipher who I am, and why I’ve been thrust into their war. They claim they have the power to protect me and help me discover who I am.
A wraith whose shadows’ ignite sparks that dance beneath my skin.
A fae with a silver tongue and lips I ache to trust.
A vampire who drinks desire like wine and vows to ruin me sweetly.
And a shape-shifting predator whose hungry gaze makes my pulse race.
They circle me like wolves, drawn to a power and vulnerability they can’t resist. Their heated glances and whispered promises awaken something inside me...a longing that dances on the line between defiance and need.
While I may feel the pull of each of them, I know deep down that I wasn’t made for their cages, gilded or otherwise. However, in a fractured world at war between humans and magic, I’ll need allies as I uncover who—and what—I truly am.
As their sweet whispers tangle with my thoughts and their searing touches threaten to unravel me, fragments of my memories begin to surface. Each of them swears they’ll never let me go, but they’ll soon learn that love was never meant for me.
Some call me death. Others, salvation.
When I rise, the world will remember what it means to fall.
AUTHOR NOTE: Touch of Oblivion is book one of the Woven In Time trilogy and will end on a cliffhanger. Please note that the content is intended for mature audiences.

Touch of Oblivion kicks off R.L. Caulder’s Woven in Time series with a bang—mysterious powers, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a whole lot of \"why choose?\" energy. If you’re into slow-burn, high-stakes romance with possessive, protective, morally gray alphas, this book delivers. Her dramatic and descriptive writing style pulls you in from page one. The vivid world-building makes you feel like you're living inside the story, and the layered character development—both main and supporting—adds...

This one left me with mixed emotions. Like I enjoyed it. I gobbled it up. But also like what did I read? An unknown creature in the shape of a woman ends up coming out of the earth in the middle of a battle between magical factions and humans and is sent to judge earth and its coming war. Except she has no memories and no identity. While here she catches the eyes of the 4 kings of the magical factions (Fae, Shifter, Vampire and Wraiths). This is classified as a why choose with 4 potential love...

Wow – this book was SOOO different than other books, and I absolutely am DYING to find out what happens next. That last chapter – woowee – it was a DOOZY. Which thread will she pull? To be honest, I hope she doesn’t pull EITHER thread that lets something else entirely happen…But what am I talking about, you ask? This amazing book! It's sorta romantasy slash dystopian. In the future in an alternate-ish world, the powers that be in every country have been secretly working with the mythics, until...

What an incredible new world RL Caulder has made for us! Like her other stories, the descriptive writing is not over powering, but the perfect amount to pull you in and feel like you're in the story with the characters. She creates beautiful imagery of all the different places this story takes us! Wren, the FMC, is birthed from the Earth (Yes, the Earth pushes her out of the ground) in the middle of a war between humans and magical beings. The humans are fleeing and leave her for dead only to...
