Book excerpt: 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

After her noble father disowned her, Lady Serena Ravenshaw clawed her way from streetwalker to courtesan to prosperous innkeeper. Now she's feared and respected from one end of London to the other, by the lowest dregs of the city's underworld and the upper echelons of the beau monde, and she'll do anything to keep it that way. When mild-mannered chemist Solomon Hathaway turns up in her office, asking for her help, she immediately recognizes him from one fateful night years before. She's been watching and waiting for him for years-so she can turn the tables and put him in her debt, of course, and not because he looked like an angel and was kind to her when she needed it most. She's determined not to wonder what put that fresh grief in his eyes. But after a betrayal even Serena didn't expect, she must put aside her pride and work with Solomon to stop a ring of French spies and save her beloved inn, her freedom-and England itself.
