"Veil of Pearls"
Author: MaryLu Tyndall
Release Date: 7/1/12
Be swept away to Charleston of 1811, a city bustling with immigrants like Adalia, who is a runaway slave so light-skinned that no one guesses her past. Terrified her secret will be discovered, she settles into a quiet life making herbal remedies for a local doctor.
But when Morgan, the handsome son of a prominent family, sweeps her into his glamorous world—a world in which the truth about Adalia’s heritage would ruin them both—suspicions and petty jealousies are aroused.
What will Morgan do when he discovers that the woman he has fallen in love with is a runaway slave?

Wanting, Wishing and Waiting until next Wednesday,
Nice variety! I love stories about journalists...and if there are cowgirls, too, so much the better.
ReplyDeleteHistorical fiction also tempts me for that occasional step back in time.
Thanks for sharing...and here's MY WOW POST
I've not heard of these books but I hope you pick them up soon :)
ReplyDeleteHere is my wishlist

They both sound like really good reads. I would like to know more about the children's ranch in Cowgirls don't cry.
ReplyDeleteVeil of Pearl sounds like something I would be interested in reading. I like historical novels of this nature. I like learning about the past.

Those books sound interesting, I think I may have to look for them. I just finished a Mary Higgins Clark book "I'll Walk Alone". It was pretty good.
ReplyDeleteVeils of Pearls has me intrigued as does Cowgirls Don't Cry but i will need to read books one and two first..since i am anal about reading them in order..hehehe
ReplyDeleteI love the cover, but not sure I will read this one -- enjoy.
