Passion. Fate. Loyalty.

Would you risk it all to change your destiny?

The last thing Kelsey Hayes thought she’d be doing this summer was trying to break a 300-year-old Indian curse. With a mysterious white tiger named Ren. Halfway around the world. But that’s exactly what happened. Face-to-face with dark forces, spellbinding magic, and mystical worlds where nothing is what it seems, Kelsey risks everything to piece together an ancient prophecy that could break the curse forever.

Kelsey Hayes is 18 years old girl, her parents has died and now living with her foster people, looking for a job trough a circus, meeting a white tiger was beyond her control.  One of her responsibilities is to help take care of the white tiger. Immediately Kelsey feels a connection to the tiger and spends her free time visiting him. Once, while visiting the tiger, she says aloud, “I wish you were free”.  Soon after, an elderly Indian gentleman named Mr. Kadam appears and offers Kelsey an opportunity to travel to India to continue taking care of the tiger.

Wanting to take the opportunity Kelsey tried to convince her foster parents, and success. Now going to India was like a dream come true because she never traveled the world. But when she's India, the car that bring her and Ren lost and left both of them alone. Exploring the jungle with Ren, she's know something must be wrong and it's true, The white tiger was actually a 300-years-old Indian Prince name Dhiren, he only can change to be human 24 minute each day, and now what she has to do was breaking the curse.

After knowing that she's Durga favorite, she's willing to help Ren, her mission was to obtain a Golden Fruit of India. Getting help from Mr.Kadam to prepare all things she will need, she begin her journey of breaking the curse without knowing all the danger facing her up.

Spending so much time with Ren being  a man and tiger making her confuse sometimes, and falling in love with Ren was beyond her control too. Especially when Ren was a flawless man.

Can Kelsey break the curse for Ren? And what's going to happen between Ren and Kelsey? Enjoy the journey on the Tiger's Curse 

*********************

this is the first time I read book that take a place in India, I love how Collen Houck describing India. It makes me know more about other culture. I love the writing and I love REN! He's such a perfect boyfriend, poor Ren for meeting Kelsey. I like Kelsey at first, brave, down-to-earth and after knowing she has a feeling to Ren she's begin to be freaking annoying. Over all the books was good.
