Hidden Jewel - Virginia Andrews

Pearl hopes for happiness, but destiny is drawing her deep into the shadows of her family's tainted past . . .

Raised in a New Orleans mansion filled with kindness and laughter, Ruby Landry's daughter Pearl dreams of becoming a doctor. With all the finest families wishing her well, her high school graduation party is almost as festive as Mardi Gras itself. But still she fears that she will never know the essence of romantic passion, or the truth behind her family's buried secrets.

After a cruel accident befalls one of Pearl's twin brothers, Ruby flees, tormented, back to her Cajun roots. Pearl's faith in her mother abides, but she cannot hold back the tears when her other brother falls ill, and her father retreats into his own bourbon-soaked world. Pearl's dreams of success swirl away with the hurricane winds, and she journeys to the swamps in search of the shocking truths of her heritage. In the warm embrace of a gentle Cajun man, she discovers a refuge. But until the storm clouds clear, Pearl cannot savour the sweetness that always, always seems beyond tomorrow...
