Amber's Review:
Sometimes the veil separating us from our dreams is one that seems
too priceless to tear apart. But sometimes our dreams - and the veil
itself - aren't what they appear to be. In Veil of Pearls Adalia
and Morgan both find themselves on a journey of new and unexpected
perspectives, a journey that is as engaging and ultimately uplifting as
I've come to expect from a Tyndall novel!
After
escaping a cruel master, Adalia simply longs for freedom and a chance to
live in peace. But when rich and handsome Morgan Rutledge starts to
pursue her, his interest opens the door to opportunities she never
imagined she could have - as well as troubles she never imagined she
would have to face. What once seemed so good is suddenly not enough,
especially when hearts are on the line. Where do Adalia and Morgan
really belong? And do they belong together?
Veil of Pearls is a story full of frustration and
uncertainty, along with some enjoyable Tyndall trademarks: a little bit
of seafaring excitement, a romantic hero, and an epic ending. And as it
is a book "dedicated to everyone who has longed to be one of the 'in'
crowd," I think many readers can relate to Adalia's struggles and/or
Morgan's fears. Tyndall has written another pearl of a book, and I eagerly await the next addition to her lovely strand of stories!
*With thanks to author MaryLu Tyndall for providing me with a copy of the book in exchange for my honest opinion.*

Wow, that sounds like a great read, a well-executed historical fiction is worth is its weight in gold. I wonder what the "epic ending" is? :)
ReplyDeleteAlison,
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of MaryLu's work - it's romantic, inspiring, and full of adventure! And most of her endings offer an epic, satisfying conclusion to the adventure. :) I LOVE the "Legacy of the King's Pirates" series. Some of my other favorites of her books are: The Raven Saint, Surrender the Night, and this one. :)
Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment!
