Burning Tigress (The Way of The Tigress, Book 4)

We are told their is emotion but it is not there. The sex is cold. The pair are two-dimensional. The first part is slow. Then toward the end we get a little true emotion, but it about the past not the present. I will not bother to read this series again. I was so intriqued by the Chinese philosphy and having an Asia hero. I really wanted to love this series.

It just did not delivery. Jun 28, Richard rated it liked it. I never really decided if this book was empowering or racist, and I guess I never will know for sure. The white heroine falls for a super-masculine, mysterious Chinese man. I gotta admit, though, it was pretty hot at times. Jan 27, Jen rated it really liked it Shelves: The fourth in the Tigress series, all set in the exotic locale of China, namely Shanghai.

I haven't read these in order, which is why I am occasionally confused about the characters, but for the most part it's a self-contained, straight-forward story. This particular installment deals with Charlotte Wicks, a boisterous young woman living in Shanghai, and the household's First Boy, Ken Jin.

Charlotte, frustrated by the constraints of being an Englishwoman, wants to receive an education no one of her standing and acquaintance would dare to dream of.

Similarly, Ken Jin is restless at his lack of equilibrium in life, having been cast away by his family for aiding the "ghost foreigners". Charlotte finds a set of erotic scrolls left for her by her friend, Joanna from Hungry Tigress. Upon discovering such sacred texts in Charlotte's hands, Ken Jin's first task is to retrieve and return them to their rightful place. Charlotte does not release them from her possession willingly, not unless Ken Jin accepts her request to teach her what is revealed in the said scrolls. Ken Jin and Charlotte have a powerful chemistry that takes a while to build up as they each tread the tentative path to Heaven but when it sets it is really palpable and even bittersweet, as they reach a point of self-awareness.

Their cultural differences clash and intertwine to transcend towards something far greater and more potent—their union is complete and resplendent. As with Lee's other books, there is metaphor and philosophy laced within the prose that may seem either corny or poignant.

I found this even more enjoyable than Hungry Tigress. Hopefully it only gets better and better! Jul 18, Heather Wiese rated it did not like it. I'm sorry, I just didn't like this one at all. I actually read it quite awhile ago but then it went to the back of the review pile. It's set in Shanghai, China in the late s. Charlotte is English and the daughter of a wealthy family who is living there for business. Ken Jin is Chinese and a servant to Charlotte's father. The first page has Charlotte accidentally walking in on Ken Jin using acupuncture needles on himself and her remarking on "what a large penis he has!

Charlotte goes to v I'm sorry, I just didn't like this one at all. Charlotte goes to visit her friend, who she just found out apparently married a Chinese monk, and discovers scrolls of explicit sexual acts and takes them. She then decides that she wants Ken Jin to teach her these things because apparently he has a reputation of "pleasuring" high class women.

There are a LOT of stereotypes on both sides which was probably accurate at the the time , about 50 references to Ken Jin's "dragon" and pages of him calling her a slut. There were also references to yin and yang, and qi, which could have been way more interesting, but I just don't think it was handled well.

Basically Ken Jin's whole thing was that he wanted to ascend to Heaven through the use of his yang energy and they way he built his energy was through the sexual release of his female partners' yin. There were other things that bothered me like her brother being mentally handicapped because Charlotte had "her shadow" over him , but I'm already exhausted with just this.
