I have been a fan of MaryLu Tyndall since I picked up the first title I found by her. Since that moment Ive rejoiced each time her new novel hits my hands and this time was far from an exception.

Veil of Pearls combines so much into a solid novel. Historical controversy (in this case the plight of slaves pre-Civil War), strong characters that arent afraid to grow and learn to embrace change. A love story that moves the depth of my heart with impassioned precision. And writing that completely grips me, painting word pictures upon my mind that only make me want to stop and savor the impact of their words.

Tyndalls novels have progressively improved to where I do believe, she is even better than when she started, though not to detract from her previous titles. The power of each word to build a story complex in emotion and plot is carefully built until at the end of the story I was disappointed to leave these characters behind.
Adalia and Morgans love story is one that the reader can never escape from knowing it possibly cannot succeed. Adalia has come from a slaves descent and bears the marks on her very back. Knowing this the entire time I was reading the book kept an element of unease waiting to break lose.

Spiritual threads, romantic elements, wordsmithing! I truly adored this title. Its unique and different. Yet entertaining and compelling. Tyndalls latest is not to be missed!

This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the author for my copy to review.
