Lydia
Smith, a svelte Englishwoman never expected her journey from England
to the
Orient to change her life so drastically.
Sailing to the Orient to find her fiancée, Lydia’s
life is threatened; she is
kidnapped, drugged and taken to a Chinese brothel where she is sold
into sexual
slavery. Lydia’s
owner, Ru “The Dragon” Shan is like no other man she’s ever encountered
before.
Frightened and unsure of his demands and of what the future holds, Lydia
is
surprised when she learns of the real reason he purchased her.
Ru doesn’t
demand Lydia’s
virginity, take her roughly or want to cause bodily pain; he wants her
Yin, the
essence of her ecstasy. Ru is a White Tigress Buddhist who wants Lydia’s
Yin to
spiritually enhance his Yang. Ru refuses to share his seed, needing to
fulfill
his goal, yet Lydia
makes it difficult as he teachers her about all that is sensual and
empowering
about their bodies and desires.
Will Lydia
stay with
Rue forever? Will she allow him to teach her all he knows until she can
escape?
Jade Lee’s White
Tigress is a sexual
adventure unlike anything I have read before. Zen Buddhism is explored
and
interwoven with romance and sensuality splendidly in this story. It’s
exotic,
erotic and captivates a reader. It gives one a lot to think about,
learn and
understand with a different way of life and love. Lydia
and Ru are smoldering,
charismatic and all a reader could want in the hero/heroine.
White Tigress is impressive with the
wealth of
information about Zen Buddhism and this author’s sure hand of writing
romance. This story is highly
recommended and a keeper for any home library.
