Tiger's Destiny Blog Tour: Review and Interview with Ren

 

Book Blurb:

With three of the goddess Durga's quests behind them, only one prophecy now stands in the way of Kelsey, Ren, and Kishan breaking the tiger's curse. But the trio's greatest challenge awaits them: A life-endangering pursuit in search of Durga's final gift, the Rope of Fire, on the Andaman Islands in the Bay of Bengal.

It's a race against time--and the evil sorcerer Lokesh--in this eagerly anticipated fourth volume in the bestselling Tiger's Curse series, which pits good against evil, tests the bonds of love and loyalty, and finally reveals the tigers' true destinies once and for all.

Review

Everyone that knows me, knows how big a Tigers fan I am. Colleen Houck is one of those wonderful authors that can make me have every emotion within her books and come out feeling like I should have therapy for what I felt like I just went through. So naturally,  when I was asked to join the Tiger's Destiny's blog tour, I was beyond ecstatic and had to remind myself that it was okay to keep breathing. And of course I wasn't gonna pass the opportunity up. 

Sooo here we are! But I'm sure you guys are all wondering what I thought about Tiger's Destiny. Well here it is...

Tiger's Destiny was an action pack, heart wrenching roller-coaster of a ride. It was a great follow to Tiger's Voyage and I honestly loved every minute of it. Colleen Houck, once again, pulled me into another journey with Kelsey, Ren and Kishan back in India trying to finish the last prophecy. They have to face their greatest challenges yet and Kelsey has to really think about where her heart lies. I did hate when the end of the book came because I have to wait for the real ending like everyone else. If you like true romance and some great myths with action, this saga is for you and you should pick up Tiger's Curse. And if you're already a fan of the lovely Mrs. Houck, mark your calendars for this one!

Interview with Ren

Tif: 
What did you think of Kelsey when you first met her?

Ren: 
I thought she was lonely and was looking for something though she was unaware of it. She seemed to be a lovely wisp of a girl visiting me from a dream forgotten.

Tif:
Why do you think Lokesh is so obsessed with Kelsey?

Ren:
He desires to possess all he cannot have and especially wants to hurt me. Lokesh sees me as the one thing that prevents him from achieving his goals and he knows it will destroy me if something ever happened to her.

Tif: 
What is your favorite place you have visited? Why?

Ren:
 I’ve seen many beautiful places and have been inspired by brilliant vistas but there is no place on Earth more brilliant, more beautiful than Kelsey Hayes. My favorite place is wherever she is.

Tif:
 How is it for you to be living in this day and age compared to you own time period? Do you find a lot of things strange or can you easily adopt?

Ren: 
People are the same in any time—they laugh, they love, they strive to provide for and protect their families. This doesn’t change. Only the means by which they accomplish these things changes. I don’t find the new technologies strange; they simply become a new field of study for me.

Tif:
What was it like not being able to remember Kelsey, looking back on it?

Ren:
It was like being in a waking dream. I knew something was very wrong with me but I couldn’t quite figure out what it was. My mind felt as if someone had wrapped it in a blanket. I felt smothered.

Tif:
Kishan and you don't have the best relationship; but how much more tension is there now that your both going after Kelsey's affection? How does that make you feel?

Ren: 
I cannot fault my brother for his relationship with Kelsey. I was the one who placed her in his care. To his credit, Kishan has not pushed her or sought more than she was willing to give, but I’ll admit there are times I wish I could dissolve the connection between them. Make no mistake, I will continue to fight for her affection every hour of every day, but should she choose him over me, I will respect her wishes.
