He haunts the jungle – and her dreams
When Dr. Sally Carter travels to India to regroup from a broken heart the last thing she wants is to fall in love. But Raja Asoka (Ash) Bhosle is entirely too attractive to ignore, even though she knows it can only end in tears. Hers.
Ash guards his forest and the precious creatures within it, protecting the rare tigers from mindless slaughter, and a secret that lives in legend. From the moment he sets eyes on the Australian doctor, he wants her, even over the objections of his mother and the unsuitability of her cultural heritage.
While Ash fights tiger poachers, Sally struggles against cultural prejudice. Can the Legend of the Black Tiger be the bond that brings them closer together, or will it be an impossible belief that rips them apart. The closer Sally comes to understanding what the legend means, the more frequent the nightmares become. Is she losing her sanity, or is there more to Sally than she herself knows? The answers lie buried in her past.
When the Black Tiger breaks free to stalk the night, only one thing will control the beast.

I wasn’t sure that I was going to enjoy Black Tiger by Greta van der Rol and I did. It is not the usual paranormal romance like I thought it would be. It was more than that. Black Tiger focused on the issue of tiger poaching and conservation with a little bit of paranormal romance. I thoroughly enjoy how Sally struggle to fit in with the new culture – against the social standing, religion and belief and superstitious in India. I love the adventure with Ash as struggle to stop the tiger poaching issues.
I really like Sally as the heroine. She was strong woman who would stand for what she believe in. I was glad that Greta van der Rol didn’t press on the Sally-Ash romances. Instead, the author focused more on the tiger poaching issues. Sure, Sally and Ash like each other in the first sight, but I was so glad that the author takes their relationship slowly.
I would recommend to anyone who loves reading story with a mix of paranormal, romance and more action. Furthermore, you’re supporting tiger conservation when you purchase this book because the author is donating all the profits from this book to the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation! How awesome is that?
** I receive a copy of the book from the author for review as part of the blog tour.
Greta van der Rol loves writing science fiction with a large dollop of good old, healthy romance. Black Tiger is a slight departure from her usual genre, because it's contemporary and paranormal., but, like her other books, it's fast-paced and action-packed. She lives not far from the coast in Queensland, Australia and enjoys photography and cooking when she isn't bent over the computer. She has a degree in history and a background in building information systems, both of which go a long way toward helping her in her writing endeavors.
