    The first book features a male protagonist of Chinese descent who tricks the female protagonist into marrying him because she cannot accept polygamy (both are virgins). The second book involves the female protagonist being tricked into going to Myanmar or Thailand; it's a classic case of her running away and him chasing her relentlessly. It's a good book. Later, the male protagonist abandons many unsavory forces for the sake of the female protagonist and their child. The third book is also good.
