Blaque Pearle

Following a battle with a rare, progressive eye disorder called Stargardt disease, Tarris Marie experienced what she calls her “season of loss” — a time when she felt she’d lost everything, including her purpose in life.

During that time when I lost my central vision, I lost my job — I had a season of loss. I hit a low point in my life, and God told me to get up and write a book.

-Tarris Marie

Tarris started writing her riveting debut, Blaque Pearle, on Juneteenth 2020, which blends the genres of women’s crime and urban romance in a sophisticated, action-packed story featuring a deeply flawed but relatable protagonist who Tarris describes as a representation of sometimes what happens when we go dark.

A tenacious aspiring actress from Compton’s unforgiving, scarred streets, Pearle Monalise Brown has her Hollywood dreams shattered, and switches gears to a fallback plan; using her beauty and acting skills to swindle money and expensive jewels.

When she’s hired by the Colombian cartel to steal a priceless Basquiat from a debonair kingpin and art collector named Blaque, her talents might not be enough to keep her from falling into a trap she never saw coming.

The sagacious and handsome Blaque has the legacy of two powerful organized crime families: the Laurents, known dons hailing from Kingston, Jamaica; and the Savages, a sophisticated syndicate with criminal enterprises across the U.S. As Blaque and Pearle become passionately entangled, Pearle falls prey to a darker underworld.

Time is ticking. Lives are at stake. Will these love outlaws be able to outsmart their enemies, or will they wage an all-out war, leaving the bodies to fall wherever they may?
