About this ebook
Set during the Tang Empire, this Chinese historical romance "is politically and culturally rich . . . atypical, sensual and filled with honor and wit" ( Publishers Weekly).
The thief who stole his heart
Sword dancer Li Feng is used to living life on the edge of the law—a woman alone in the dangerous world of the Tang Dynasty has only her whirlwind reflexes to trust. She will discover the truth about her past, even if that means outwitting the most feared thief-catcher of them all. . . .
Relentless, handsome and determined, Han sees life—and love—as black and white. Until he finally captures the spirited, courageous Li Feng, who makes him question everything he thought he knew about right and wrong. Soon he's faced with an impossible choice: betray the elusive sword dancer he is learning to love, or trust his long-disregarded heart and follow her to dangerous, tempting rebellion. . . .
"The graceful, almost poetic quality of Lin's writing perfectly complements the Tang Dynasty setting of her latest expertly crafted historical romance, and the book's potent combination of compelling characters and exotic historical setting make The Sword Dancer an auto-buy for libraries in search of something different for their romance collections." — Booklist
