“His eyes drifted leisurely back up to my face and he smiled at me appreciatively, “Kelsey, when a man spends time with a beautiful woman, he needs to pace himself. I quirked my eyebrow at him and laughed. “Yeah, I’m a regular marathon alright.” He kissed my fingers. “Exactly. A wise man never sprints…in a marathon.”

Thanks for accepting my friend request! I adore the Tiger's Saga soooo much! Thanks for creating such an awesome series!
I selected "Tiger's Destiny" as the best romance novel of 2012: http://libraryladyhylary.blogspot.com... !
Hi Colleen!I recenltly read the Tiger's Curse, and I really enjoyed it. I am from India, and I found it really amazing that you knew so much about it. Was it research you did to find out about this stuff, or did you actually go to India? It would be great if you answered my question.
YOU are AAAmazing...I LOVEEE your tiger series books. Tiger's Destiny was so so SOOOO GOOOOOOOD. You had me crying when Mr. Kadam gave his life. I love how EVERYTHING came together in the end. You have got mad skills....in writing. I would LOVEEE to see your books come to life on the big screen. Look forward to your next book....
Thank you so much for adding me as a friend! I just finished the last Tiger book, and I really loved it. You're a great inspiration to me and my writing. :)
Thank you so much for accepting my friendship.Like everyone else,I just needed to tell you how much I've fallen in love with your story!and Ren!!!!
Thank you so much for accepting my friendship. Like everyone else, I have fallen in love with your books and Ren. I just finished Voyage and am eagerly waiting for Destiny. Thank you for these wonderful stories, and characters, and for introducing the beauty of India and her culture like no other!
I just finished reading The whole series for the 4th time. I just can't get enough of it! It's the best series i have ever read. I think i know what the color of tigers dream will be. Because, the colors of the books are Blue,Orange,Purple and now green. I noticed that it is the colors of the rainbow backwards!! The Books just keep getting better and better!!
Hi Collen.Thank you for accepting my friend request i really apreciate it. Your books are the best i have ever read. Not only is the story breathtaking so is the cover!!! Your amazing writing talents touched my heart because of what Ren and Kishan Feel for Kelsey. I have bought all your books in hardcover and i am telling everyone i know about your books right now. This divine ,beautiful story is truly a fantastic book and one of the most romantic I have ever read.
I wish i could meet you in person as your writting has made me a better person. ;)
I love your Books!!
Thanks for friending! I just finished Tiger's Voyage last night and am counting down the days till Tiger's Destiny is released!!! The Tiger saga is now my favorite series :)
I absolutely love the Tiger Saga series. The take on Indian mythology is quite unique. Definitely Team Kishan.
Hi Colleen! Thank you for accepting the friend request!I just wanted to say, you are a fantastic writer. The Tiger Saga has continued to inspire me with my own writing because I hope that one day, I can have a series as well written and magical as yours. I absolutely adore Ren and Kishan and can't wait for Tiger's Destiny!
Thanks for writing!
Thanks for accepting my friend request! I can't wait till you come to Honolulu! I'm very excited to meet you.Aloha!
~Lauren
Thank you so very much for accepting my friend request Colleen! Your Tiger's series is absolutely amazing and breathtaking. Also, thank you VERY MUCH for giving the world Ren ;)
Hello Colleen! thank you for accepting my friend request. I totally love your books! the Tiger's are amazing and the storyline is just as awesome. I'm totally at the edge of my seat and cant wait for the next installment!
Congrats and more power to you! :)
I hear that your book is becoming a movie, is it true? And please say yes because I am going to mark that date and storm in that theater and... You know the rest.
I am a little mad at you Colleen. You can't make the book come a little sooner. Me and my friends are dying
Hi Colleen, I just love your books. I can no longer wait for the fourth one any more!!! I just hope you luck on you final two books. And I know they are going to be great. And just so you know... I was born the Year of the Tiger. :)
Hello Colleen :). I could have asked this on Twitter lol, but I thought I'd check in on here. Will there be more than Five books in the Tiger's series? I am curious. BTW, congrats on the success of Tiger's Voyage. I absolutely loved and enjoyed it. I really like the narrator as well :). Have a wonderful day!
Thanks Collen for having accepted my request of friendship :DI love your books!! Really!! They inspire my days and my nights :D
Hello ColleenThank you for being my very first friend on this site. I envy your wonderful gift, many people can write books, but not all of them are storytellers. I am grateful that you share your gift with us.
Hi Colleen =DThanks for accepting my request.
I love tigers for a long time, and when I saw the cover of your book, I almost died because I had to wait months to get my copy (yes, I'm not in the U.S.)
I loved the first book and can't wait for the second. x]
Just wanted to say that I love this series and it has moved up to my favorite. I re-read them all the time too :-) I will be lost when this series is finally done lol but I will be looking forward to more of your books. Your a great writer and a big inspiration.
Hey Colleen . Thanks for being my friend. =) Well I was trying find someone that actually looked like what I thought Kishan looks like & I literally stumbled on to this beauty . lol http://www.nareshk.com . I just wanted to share. Thank you for writing such amazing books. I love them & July can't come any faster.
I'm interested to see if you post a review of "Envy"...just read that one and wasn't sure what to think....
Hi Colleen. We've been friends on GoodReads for a while. I'd love to be actual online friends and open a dialogue with you. Just sent a message - heads-up :-)
Hey colleen I was reading some quotes from tigers curse answer I didn't understand one , one of them was talking about Kelsey from Ren's point point of view. Are you going to start making books in Ren's point of view? Oh yea I have another question its
are you going to make 2 more books after tigers voyage? If you are you must make them come sooner I'm in suspense most of the time and I AM NOT A PATIENT PERSON.
How come people have recieved Tiger's Voyage today? I would love to read the book now too, i do not understand why some peoples books were shipped to them today. If you could please respond to this i would love to know the answer. Thank you, Kelley.
Hi mrs. houck!!! I see that you are online JS you are the awesomest writer I know!!! And BTW Ren is so SMEXY!!!
Thank you so much for the hours of great reading you have provided me. I truly love your work. I hope you don't stop writing after the tiger books. I have a feeling anything you write will be a five star book.
Hey Colleen! I'm not sure where to place my comment about why I deserve a galley of TV, so I'm leaving one everywhere that I follow u, LOL. I hope I don't get disqualified so I'll get rite 2 the point. The Tiger's Curse Saga has become my world, I reread each book every week, and luckily for me I got copies of your self publish version of TC and TQ. I have to tell u that I loved them even more. I got to see a side of Kelsey that I only imagined but when I read your description of her she became even more solid in my imagination (if that makes any sense). I have read so many other books as well to kill time before TV gets out but I always end up not being fully satisfied and finish rereading the best books ever, TC & TQ. Soon to be added to the list TV, TDm, & TDy. My passion for these books can be seen from a mile away, everything has to do with tigers and Indian culture. At work I relate everything I do with this series. I deserve a galley because deep down, honest to God I love this books, their super special to me and are truly the best books ever and I would slap anyone who dare say otherwise XD. Thank u so much Colleen because u have given me and ur fans a world we love to visit each and every time we read your books.Plus every time I see or read a new interview with you, I am more certain that u r Kelsey Hayes in the flesh!. Love ya 4 reals!
Hi Mrs. Colleen, not to bother you or anything....but I had an idea for you. It would be really cool if maybe Tiger's Voyage, Tiger's Destiny, or Tiger's Dream, that some of the money from the profits could go to Tiger Conservation. It's terrible to think that this beautiful animal might be extinct in twelve years time. Since your series is so popular and tigers are the main idea in the story, money to the tiger conservation fund would be an awesome idea. You've probably already thought of it before though.
Just a thought. ;)
Thank you for accepting my request Colleen :) I'm currently reading Tiger's Curse- so far I am loving it! It's so different to what I have read before, and I hope to one day see you in the UK if ever you visit on a tour :D All the best Sarah
