Oh goodness!! I am in LOVE with this challenge! We all know how much I like men-talking about them, looking at them, reading about them… In all seriousness…this has been a great and fun challenge! One of the things I have realized, though, is that because I like them so much, I have had an extremely hard time picking just one.

Krystal:
I was lucky enough to receive an advanced copy of Tiger’s Voyage (thank you, Splinter/Sterling!), the third book in Colleen Houck’s Tiger Saga.  If you’ve seen my reviews from the previous two books, Tiger’s Curse and Tiger’s Quest, you know that I can’t stop gushing about this series, and have given each one of them 5 books on the Bookshelf Banter rating scale.  Well, Tiger’s Voyage is no different!  I was immediately pulled right back into the story, completely caught up in the Kelsey/Ren/Kishan love triangle, which brings …

But danger lurks around the corner, forcing her to return to India where she embarks on a second quest–this time with Ren’s dark, bad-boy brother Kishan, who has also fallen prey to the Tiger’s Curse.
