About Tiger's Curse:
Passion. Fate. Loyalty.
Would you risk it all to change your destiny?
The last thing 17-year old 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.
Tiger’s Curse is the exciting first volume in an epic fantasy-romance that will leave you breathless and yearning for more.

Review:
I wasn't very impressed with this book. I had to force myself to finish it. The way the author tells the story is kind of dragging but the world building I find quite good. So for me this book is a so so, but it is suspenseful enough for me to want to read the second book in the series. I just hope that the next book is better told than this one. Overall, I would give this book a 3 out of 5.
