Book Description:
He might help her... if the price is right.

Surrounded by potential enemies, Hannah McGarry faces the mystery of her husband's suspicious death, the prospect of bankruptcy... and the disappearance of the fabulous Black Trinity necklace that was to be her financial security. Desperate, she calls Archer Donovan, a silent partner in Pear Cove, her late husband's pearl farm venture. He might help her... if the price is right.

Archer Donovan would rather forget he'd ever heard of Pearl Cove... its memories of living on the dark side, the soul-numbing certainty that there was no law, no justice, no mercy; just hunters and the hunted. That life taught him to trust no one but family. But when Hannah McGarry calls in an old debt Archer is back in the game. And at his side in pursuit of the stolen fortune is a woman he shouldn't want, yet cannot resist... a woman who may know more than she's telling about her husband's death... and more than is safe to know about the dark and elusive black pearls. With deadly competitors on their tails, Archer and Hannah race through uncharted waters in search of the fabulous Black Trinity. And the closer they come to finding the coveted pearls, the closer they come to danger and death... and to each other.

Not as good as others in the series. Kind of slow.

This is number 3 in the series. I learned so much about pearl farming! The first book would be "Amber Beach" (which concentrates on amber) and the secong is "Jade Island" (which concentrates on jade) The fourth would be "Midnight in Ruby Bayou" (which concentrates on rubies). The whole series is great.
This book deals with the oldest Donovan brother, Archer.

The eldest brother in one of Seattle's most powerful families, Archer Donovan is handsome, dangerous, and fascinated by pearls. He's also been in love with Hannah McGarry, his half-brother's wife, for the last 10 years. Far away in Australia, Hannah's loveless marriage ends in violence when a cyclone tears apart her pearl farm and her husband, Len, dies. But Len's death wasn't an accident; he was murdered. Desperate for help, Hannah places a call to Archer, who rushes to her side and quickly finds that powerful competitors in the pearl trade are circling Pearl Cove like buzzards.

Businessmen, criminals, and government agencies are willing to do whatever it takes to find a fabulous pearl necklace, named the Black Trinity, and to learn Len's secret formula for producing the extraordinary black pearls. Racing against time and tracked by enemies too numerous to count, Archer and Hannah begin a dangerous game of hide and seek to find Len's murderer and recover the Black Trinity. But even if the two lovers survive their adventure, will Archer find a way to convince Hannah that he's a different man from his unbalanced half-brother? And can Hannah find the courage to chance her heart and love again?

A New York Times bestseller! Surrounded by potential enemies, Hannah McGarry faces the mystery of her husband’s suspicious death, the prospect of bankruptcy, and the disappearance of the fabulous Black Trinity necklace that was to be her financial security. Desperate she calls Archer Donavan, a silent partner in Pearl Cove, her late husbands pearl farm venture. He might help her…. If the price is right! Don’t read this one as a bedtime book to go to sleep by, you won’t be able to put it down!

This was my favorite of the "Donovan" series so far. I do enjoy Elizabeth Lowell books- this one has the same knowledge base about a "treasure" (in this case pearls) and a hot romance. This love was a little hotter and the search for the pearls a little less tedious than some of her other "treasure" searches. Archer Donovan, the protagonist, was in both her previous Donovan books. He was not very likable then, but Lowell has a very subtle way of getting both the reader and the female love interest Hannah to see past that surface and at the end I really liked Archer! Definitely recommend, but I would read "Amber Beach" and "Jade Island" first!
