The dragon: the Chinese symbol of maleness, virility, power.
The tiger: femininity, fortune, desire.
Two symbols. Two people. One all-consuming passion.
Back Cover: Englishwoman Lydia Smith sailed to the Orient seeking her fiancé. She found treachery. In seedy Shanghai, she was drugged, sold, made a slave—to a dark-eyed dragon of a man. But while her captor purchased her body, was that what he sought? He demanded not her virginity but her Yin—the essence of her ecstasy—and there seemed no choice but consent. What harm, Lydia wondered, was there in allowing him to pleasure her, to teach her, until she could flee?

It was the danger—and reward—of taking the first step on a journey to heaven, and her feet were already on the path to becoming a radiant and joyous White Tigress.

4 stars!

Lee takes the theme of educating an innocent one step further by weaving Asian culture and sensuality into a story that both titillates and educates.

Naïve Lydia Smith leaves England planning on surprising her fiancé. Instead, she is tricked, drugged and brought to a brothel to be sold as a slave to Ru Shan known as “the Dragon.” He is the “yang,” a man whose sexual prowess and virility are renowned. On the path to immortality, he needs what Lydia possesses; the “yin,” the power of feminine sensuality.

The intelligent Lydia is unlike any woman Ru Shan has known. She compels him to think about their relationship as not just master and slave, but more as pupil and teacher. Their relationship transforms from one of pure sensuality into a meeting of the minds and hearts.

The relationship between alpha male Ru Shan and Lydia is powerful, going beyond sensuality into the spiritual realm as Lee guides the readers as much as Ru Shan leads Lydia to uncover the mysteries of life and sensuality. An erotic romance for those seeking a heated exotic love story.

WHITE TIGRESS is a fine, distinctive tale of East loves West

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.
