The Thorny Rose challenges Martha Ryan with the terror of an accident and ends with her acceptance of being terrified as a choice. In between she learns to deal with terror foisted on her while learning from others who face the challenges of life. Though she doesn't know it, a tournament of Olympiads turns her life upside down and keeps her on the trail of Dan Rose by slipping the surly bonds of earth and diving to the depths of the Gulf of Mexico. Finding the rose among the thorns takes training.

Book Description
Thorny Roses a collection of poetry, prose, and quote by Dyana Sprayberry. "Like winter, some types of love can start out beautiful but quickly turn deadly if you're not too careful." - Dyana Sprayberry, Thorny Roses Enchanting and pensive.Thorny Roses explores the all-to-often unspoken emotions many of us carry inside after having our heart broken one to many times. It is a journey of love, loss, self-discovery, healing, and starting over. "Creating Thorny Roses was a fun, but eye-opening experience for me. As a college student studying psychology, I was introduced to the therapeutic use of expressional arts, such as art therapy and poetry therapy. I've always been drawn to creative hobbies, but I really took an interest in the use of poetry as a way to release all the heavy emotions that lingered with me from old traumas at a time when I couldn't afford a therapist. Writing turned out to be quite cathartic for me. After a few years, I finally worked up the courage to start sharing some of what I wrote with others through social media. It was at that point I decided that perhaps by sharing work, I could provide others with the same opportunity to feel understood and connected, just as I had by reading what other authors had wrote." - Dyana Sprayberry About the Author Dyana is currently working towards finishing her bachelor's degree in psychology. She lives in the U.S. with her husband and their two dogs. Thorny Roses is her first book. Her work can be found on Instagram: @thorny.roses.poetry

Book Description
“A tense, fast-paced fantasy.” —Taylor Fenner, author of The Haunting Love After seven grueling years of captivity in the Garden—a burlesque troupe of slave girls—sixteen-year-old Rose finds an opportunity to escape during a performance for the emperor. But the hostage she randomly chooses from the crowd isn't one of the emperor's men—not anymore. He's the former heir to the throne...and is now leading a rebellion against it. Rayce is a wanted man and dangerously charismatic. He’s the worst person for Rose to get involved with, no matter what his smile promises. Assuming the hostage-taking is part of the emperor’s plot to crush the rebellion, he decides to take Rose as his hostage instead. Now Rose must prove where her loyalties lie, so she offers Rayce a deal—if he helps her rescue the other girls, she'll tell him all the Garden's secrets. Well, almost all. Because there’s one secret she’s been keeping these seven years...and she’ll take it to the grave. The Garden of Thorns series is best enjoyed in order: Book #1 Garden of Thorns Book #2 War of the Wilted Book #3 Roots of Ruin
