REVIEW: Wicked Surrender by Jade Lee

Dear. Ms. Lee, Major excitement at a lower class heroine, plus added excitement that you show a more realistic view of her social acceptance minus a hero who seems to earn a living feeling sorry for himself equals mixed feelings for this book.

REVIEW: Wicked Surrender by Jade Lee

Dear Ms. Lee, Back in 2005, I read your romance White Tigress, in part because of the unusual setting, 19th century Shanghai, and the unusual pairing, a white heroine with an Asian hero.
