Summary: Interesting read
Review:
I've never read about yin and yang before, and I'll all for the slave scenarios. Lydia is a strong willed English woman who journeys to Shanghai to surprise her fiance, when she's abducted and sold into slavery. Ru Shan is in for quite a shock when he discovers the woman he enslaved has actually enslaved his spirit, and eventually his heart. Interesting and original!

Summary: WHITE TIGRESS is a fine distinctive tale of East loves West
Review: In 1898 Lydia Smith leaves England to make a surprise visit to her fiancé, who she has missed. However, she never makes her destination as she is kidnapped, drugged, and sold into sexual slavery to a Chinese brothel.

Ru "The Dragon" Shan is going to teach Lydia all he knows about sexuality, but the WHITE TIGRESS Buddhist will never release his seed physically as he wants to capture her yin to spiritually supplement his yang. However he finds himself attracted to the slave who displays intelligence that he has never seen in a woman before especially as she insists he is her teacher not her master. As they fall in love, Ru struggles to keep from physically ejactulating but Lydia makes it the most difficult task of his enlightened life as she insists their yin and yang belong together in loving harmony.

This exotic, erotic and spiritual historical romance is unique as Jada Lee introduces her audience to the sexual side of Zen Buddhism by interweaving eastern beliefs into the robust story line. The lead couple is an enjoyable powerful pairing and comparing of two strong souls, but it is Ru whose inimitability not seen in romance tales that makes the novel different, educational, and engaging. WHITE TIGRESS is a fine distinctive tale of East loves West.

Summary: One of the best multicultural romances I've ever read!
Review: Jade Lee's "White Tigress" is simply the best multicultural romance book written at this point, in my opinion. The female protagonist, Lydia, is a strong, smart woman and Ru Shan, her male counterpart is unlike any man I've read about. He recognizes his faults and deals with them, with the help of Lydia. Being strong for each other is what finally gets them what they want. This book makes me think and question everything. That's why I love it and will keep it always in my library. This is definitely a must-read but not like a typical romance. If you go in expecting that, you'll miss the message.
