The Taming of Mei Lin (Jeannie Lin).

"Укрощение Мэй Лин" - это книга о дерзкой девушке Мэй Лин, которая ставит условие своим женихам: она выйдет замуж только за того, кто сможет победить ее в поединке на мечах. Но никто из мужчин не смог победить ее, пока в ее деревню не приезжает привлекательный незнакомец Шэн Люн. Она видит в нем мужчину своей мечты, за которого готова выйти замуж и которому готова подчиниться во всем...

From the author of Jeannie Lin comes a story of heroism, suspense and betrayal set in the splendid terrain of Southeast Asia.

Mei Lin is a powerful beauty, stubborn and arrogant--she has made a wager with all of her suitors that none can match her grand mastery of the art of swordplay. When multiple men have failed to even break her spirit, she loses all hope in falling prey to those she judges as weak. And yet, when a weary stranger appears, his assurance that no one has ever equaled her skill strikes an unfamiliar note of promise. Although she views him as a threat to herself and her position, may the reticence of this recruit finally cause her to waver -- he may be the undoing of Mei Li unless both fight or become something more.
