The Thorn of a Rose (Rose Series, #2) / Rose Series (ePub)

TOWARD A BRIGHTER FUTURE

Ashley Halliday, a newly elected state senator, is over her failed engagement and ready to help make Idaho a better place to live and work. She has no time for romance…until she and Richard take their friendship to a new level. But then there's John, an aide to the governor of Idaho. Both hold power…but only one is a good man. The other is on a mission to destroy lives. Will she learn the truth in time to save lives and keep her friends safe from dark influences?

Richard Fowler, a sports bar owner and elected state representative, is happy for his best friend Stephen and his bride, Rose. He knows their secret-Rose came back from the dead to save Stephen from his lofty ambitions. Richard himself has no time for any supernatural goings-on or for romance, not with his all-out push to save state education funding. That is, he doesn't until he sees the vibrant Ashley through new eyes. But to win Ashley, he must keep her safe from a rival who wants her for darker reasons.

FROM A DARK PAST

A villain has returned from the dead, summoned by a demon, and given another chance to do what he failed at the first time. He'll gladly take down anyone else who gets in his way. And his new post in the halls of state government? A devilish chance to play corrupt lobbyist, and foil the plans of those with loftier goals.
