I'm gonna put it out there I have reread and reread and reread these books so many times I can't count. Colleen Houk puts incredible detail into the story from the crumbled buildings of Hampi to the luscious flowers of Shangri La. She also put a great amount of though into each of her characters. She delves into ll of the characters pasts and makes you really see them as a whole. The main characters are Ren (Dihren), Kishan, and Kelsey. These three are put into a love triangle that not only puts them at odds but shows you how you can love more than one person. Ren is handsome with his blue eyes and full lips and fit body. While Kishan has golden eyes and a twinkle of mischief that has been permanently etched into them. While Ren is more poetry reciting, book reading, language learning, martial arts master. Kishan is more prankster, jokester, ladies man, and all around ass kicker. The thing is they both love Kelsey, a shy girl from Oregon who never thought she would be put in this situation. I mean it's not everyday you fall in love with two tigers who can magically turn into hot indian princes. Kelsey is ordinary or so she thought, she has a passion for reading and is shy but fearless. All through out the series she struggles through her emotions, unsure if she should just allow the feeling of falling in love to overtake her or guard her feelings so she doesn't become broken. However she pushes though it as Ren recruits Kelsey and Kishan on a unpredictable, never unsurprising, journey. Full of fight scenes, run ins with death, romance and beautiful indian goddesses. The Tiger Curse series is breathtaking. It leaves you awed at some moments, girly at others, completely depressed, crying and absolutely in love. I will never want to take back those hours spent shamelessly flipping page after page only to find out it's six in the morning and I should really go to bed. I even bought the books and that's saying something. I NEVER buy books, if I do its because I can't live without them. Also I'm broke like all the time. Nonetheless reading this series is not a mistake and something I highly encourage. Cheers to Colleen Houk
Love Always,
