review 1: Recommended to me on Amazon, or I never would've heard of it! The classic Pygmalion story set in Tang Dynasty China was irresistible so I gave it a try and enjoyed it; I don't read a ton of romance, I'm more of a mystery or historical fiction buff, but I've been on a romance kick lately (trying to avoid the news I normally devour on a daily basis, I guess!), and this was different and fun. I learned some interesting history about a period I'd never read much about before, always a plus to historical fiction buffs! Recommended to romance fans who enjoy stepping out of the usual settings.
review 2: Set in 9th century China, this was a unique and fascinating book that took a completely alien setting (at least compared to most romances) and made it feel universal.
... more The slowly developing relationship between Fei Long and Yan Lin was well written and compelling - I couldn’t figure out how they were going to make things work, and I was eagerly turning the pages to find out what would happen. The book was somewhat slow to develop, but the story was well worth the wait. Excellent! less

Typical historical romance novel - but the setting in Chinese history made it seem more interesting.
