Publisher Description
Black Wind, the Mongols hailed him. Swift, fierce and proud. Yet Kira looked upon Thierry de Pereille and saw, not a man marked by legend, but a warrior who had taken her from the life she knew…to a place of passion beyond her wildest dreams.
The woman was a witch. Truly, who else could make pearls drop from her mouth? Or ensnare a man with nothing more than a touch? Yet, even as he fought the power that bound them together, Thierry knew he could not deny that the gentle Kira was his destiny.
This edition of Pearl Beyond Price has been revised from the original published version and includes new scenes.
Customer Reviews
HEA is unexpected but totally satisfying
Kira is terrified of Thierry, a huge Mongol warrior who enters her father’s market to have some pearls appraised, and her trepidation only increases when he accuses her of stealing one of his pearls. When she inadvertently swallows it, he is doomed to keep her close at hand until the pearl "reveals itself” in a couple of days. This proves to be his undoing, as he quickly begins to succumb to her charms. As for Kira, despite her initial fear, she soon realizes that Thierry is a man of honor, kindness, and sympathy, unlike her cruel and violent father. Though Thierry’s path ultimately diverges significantly from his original life plan, the requisite HEA is unexpected but totally satisfying. Ms. Delacroix, as always, writes in prose that seem appropriate for the historical period she is writing about, never jarring you out of the story by an inadvertent modern phrase. I highly recommend this book. Copy gifted by the Publisher in exchange for an honest review.
