Story
This second Gothic novel in the dark Mirror Sisters trilogy continues the tale of sisterly love at its absolute worst - from the legendary New York Times best-selling author of Flowers in the Attic and the My Sweet Audrina series (now Lifetime movies). For fans of Ruth Ware ( In a Dark, Dark Wood) and Liane Moriarty ( The Husband's Secret).
Publisher's Summary
The classic Landry series continues with this thrilling and spellbinding novel following Ruby Landry’s daughter as she tries to blossom even amidst the dark family secrets she worries will one day overwhelm her life.
Hidden Jewel is the fourth thrilling novel in the V. C. Andrews Landry series. Following All That Glitters, the spellbinding story of Ruby Landry's daring struggle to find a happy life with Beau Andreas and to protect their precious daughter. Sheltered from sorrow, innocent young Pearl thrives in the sunshine of a loving home...except for the haunting nightmares of her earliest years, and the dark family secrets she worries will one day shadow her destiny....
Raised in a New Orleans mansion filled with kindness and laughter, 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 her family’s buried secrets. Yet her summer job in an elegant old hospital is fascinating...and an experienced intern is eager to share his friendship with her.
But the sultry Louisiana heat cannot dispel her family’s sinful legacy, the snakelike treachery of a man who threatens Pearl’s innocence, or an awful portent of disaster. After a cruel accident befalls one of Pearl’s twin brothers, the bayou that seized him beckons to Ruby who flees, tormented, back to her Cajun roots. Pearl’s faith in her mother abides, but she cannot hold back her tears when her other brother falls deathly 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 her mother and the shocking truths of her heritage. In the warm embrace of a gentle Cajun man, she discovers a blessed refuge. But, until the storm clouds clear, Pearl cannot savor the springtime sweetness that always, always seems beyond tomorrow...

Pales in Comparison to the first 3
My least favorite of the series. The plot seemed forced which ended up with a bloated book with lots of filler. It wasn't unlistenable, just uneventful and drawn out. Ruby makes a much better lead character than Pearl.

Another dud...
To be fair, this narrator isn't as all around terrible as Carly Robbins (thank all that is holy SHE'S finally done!!), but Jennifer Jill Araya is just another basic female narrator that woke up one day and said, "I want to read books out loud and act a little bit." There's nothing interesting or exceptional about her voice, or her performance ability. I got tired of the hiss in the audio that made every TH sound like an S, I was over "moment" being pronounced "maw-mint" after the first thirty minutes, and if I had to hear "women" pronounced "weh-min" one more time, I was going to scream. The books itself is nothing special. It's a lot of nothing happening really slowly, but it was still better than the last two. Still, it took me about three months to wade through it, AND I listened at 1.5 speed to get it over with. But since I'm almost finished listening to the next and final book in the series (my favorite of the five), I can say that THAT narrator is a gem, and hides the poor writing with exceptional ability (which Robbins and Araya sorely lack) and will be something to look forward to as you slog through this penultimate title in the series.
