Shadows of Pearl The Pearl Series Volume 2 Arianne Richmonde Books
This is a review of all three books. Arianne Richmonde has written an exquisite, intriguing, genuine, sexy trilogy about the story of Pearl Robinson who is a forty year old documentary producer and really hasn't started living life yet. She meets and falls for Alexandre Chevalier who is a young internet billionaire hotty. Their love ignites off the pages but dark secrets and jealous family members threaten to pull them apart. This is a fantastic read! This trilogy has great character development with excellent plot development with just the right amount of suspense to keep the pages turning. It twists and turns with intrigue and sexy love scenes. This second book leaves you hanging and wanting to jump right into book three.What I loved about these books:
1. That Pearl is 40!!!! This rocks that a woman of this age can be smart sexy and the turn the head of a young bizillionaire. Loved her from the beginning. She's a complete woman in every aspect but just needs Alexandre to awaken her sexual side... and boy does he.
2. The love that Pearl and Alexandre has is genuine and real but has a fairytale side too. It's developed well and magical.
3. The secondary characters REALLY add to this story. They are woven in and out of Pearl and Alexandre's story and really help to round out the entire trilogy and keep the plot suspenseful. A devious sister and psycho ex-girlfriend.... As well as others.
4. That Alexandre is French and the history and travel to this different country and to London really paints wonderful pictures of scenes from abroad. Awesome history is shared of this country in just the right amount to lend to this wonderful story.
5. The sex is H. O. T with just enough detail.... WOW.... (That's all I have to say about that)
Do I recommend: ABSOLUTELY... one of my favorites of the year. The trilogy is complete so you don't have to wait.

Shadows of Pearl The Pearl Series Volume 2 Arianne Richmonde Books Reviews
Arianne Richmonde blew me away ! What an ORIGINAL heartrending story!
She has done it again with her amazing writing style. But what a plot! What a fabulous storyline! I loved Shadows of Pearl maybe even more than Forty Shades of Pearl. I wasn't sure how Alexandre's and Pearl's story would continue after the seemingly HEA in book 1 but she more than delivered with this heart-wrenching, nail-biting novel which has you on the edge of you seat. I couldn't put my iPad down!
I have now read the whole trilogy and what I love so much is the way each book is different, each with its own journey and character development. You get to understand why the protagonists behave and think the way they do. Anyone who says that Pearl is an immature forty year-old has obviously not turned forty yet or is totally devoid of a sense of humor. Do we really want to be reading about some always do-and-say-the-right-thing heroine? Forty year-olds feel just as vulnerable as twenty year-olds when it comes to love; maybe even more so. They are just as sexy, just as beautiful. Forty year olds carry baggage, have wrinkles, have a past. Where are people getting this nonsensical idea that by the age of forty you should have your head completely sorted out? That's what makes Pearl so lovable. She is vulnerable, real and flawed. And she makes mistakes. Yet we are rooting for her all the way. I LOVE Pearl and her mad antics. She is one of the most believable heroines in a long time.
Arianne Richmonde doesn't lay it all out on the table as with, for instance, Bared To You. E.g...letting readers know from the outset that they will be reading about two messed-up characters. Her writing is more subtle, more layered. You discover little by little that both Pearl and Alexandre are both unusual and yes, pretty screwed up. There is humor, too. Neither takes themselves too seriously which I love.
In Shadows we see Pearl in a different light. As the title warns us the 'shadows' of her past' come back to haunt her and jeopardize her relationship with Alexandre. But the truth is, the way the novel is so cleverly structured and paced, we DON"T KNOW WHOSE SIDE WE"RE ON! There are so many twists and turns in this book that it elevates it to way more than just an erotic novel. At one point I didn't know WHO to believe. GREAT JOB Arianne Richmonde!
I really think this trilogy should be on the New York Times Bestseller list. It is different, really well written (perfect grammar, no repetition, great dialogue). Anyone who skips this trilogy is really missing out.
I love this series but isn't Pearl suppose to be 40? How can she be so stupid? She doesn't trust Alexandre, has no backbone, will not stand up for herself or fight for what she wants. She is so weak and falls for anyone's BS and her predilection for sex escapades while acting so innocent, ugh!!!! Either don't do it or own it. Needless to say this wasn't my favorite story in the series. I read it 3/13 and didn't like it any better this time but I feel like it's a necessary evil to get to the other parts.
It certainly isn't your writing Arianne, you are wonderful, it's the character Pearl.
Some parts of the book pearl was driving me crazy. She acting weird and overly cautious, to the point were it was too much. I just wanted to smack her. As it says on the authors web site if you are light hearted wait until book three comes out. Trust me I wish I did wait. Since I didn't, here goes.
Pearl was lost and in her emotional problems made things worse for and other people. She was a target. Since pearl was going through so much emotionally she experimented, I'll let your mind wonder on that one. At the end it all started making since, coming together I should say. I usually read the book twice since I read so fast, but I can't on this one until book three comes. I can't even begin to understand what pearl is going to do.
Ex's can be very cruel especially greedy ones who are gold diggers.
Read the book when three comes out, so you can follow the major cliff hanger. But if you don't you won't be sorry, this book was great. It was a great follow up from book one.
This book is absolutely AHMAZING!!! The perfect element of angst and romance. This book is a solid 5 star read in my book, and deserves more. It had everything I was looking for in a romance, and so much more. I'll definitely be looking more into this author for future reads.
Wow I just can't put this book down!! I have other books waiting for me to read them but I'm hooked on pearl story I must finish all five I must know what happened at the end this is better then fifty shades of grey!!! I have falling in love with this story😃
