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.

Review:
I wanted to read this book for a long time and I’m kinda mad at myself for giving up on it. Usually I don’t stop reading books even if I’m not enjoying them as much as I’d hoped. But sometimes I just can’t bring myself to finish certain ones. I picked this book up because I was fond of the idea of ancient curses, spells needing to be broken and would’ve enjoyed the exotic descriptions of India. Sadly, Tiger’s Curse didn’t do much for me. I really couldn’t get passed the writing and Kelsey’s personality (what little of it she did have). She’s supposedly seventeen and a high school graduate but she acted and spoke like a twelve year old girl. I glanced over some of the upcoming chapters but still didn’t see much to make me keep reading so I had to make the decision to put this one to the side…for good.
I really wanted to like Tiger’s Curse but we had to break-up. There was just no chemistry between us.
