" This is a historical romance that takes place in China during the time of the emperors. The main character is a princess and she has fallen for a barbarian..... Interesting premise, the book was okay. I thought I would like it more than I did. "

" I absolutely loved this book and how it was so completely different from any other historical fiction/romance story I had ever read before. Rather than being set in London, England or somewhere in Scotland during the Bruce era or the Victorian age, etc it was set in 789 AD...the Tang Dynasty! Ai Li (the heroine) is trying to warn her father that the man she had been promised to is actually his enemy, and is forming his own army. on her journey she meets our beloved and handsome hero who is a white man outsider left over from the previous wars and battles to stop the rebellions.

" This is a nice historical romance that is based in China. Not a setting that you see alot in the genre. A nice little book. "

" this had more of a plot than I expected, but I'm not sure if it was just meant to drag it all out and it didn't seem to have much of an ending. Still, I enjoyed it and would like to read the one about her grandmother. "

" I wanted to like this one a lot more. I never got a handle on Ryam. I couldn't even figure out where he was FROM, let alone why he wanted to be with Ai LI, other than he had the hots for her. Okay, okay, he wanted a home, yadda yadda, but it didn't strike me as being real or deep. "
