The roses came down and they blinded me. I felt the soft kisses of their petals as they rained onto me; they became a second skin. They became a second soul. They became the epitome of someone who had loved me. They contracted between my toes now, swirling all over me. I heard a sweet mystic sing in loud whispers far off and against the hard and affectionate weight of the floral rain. Yet past the storm and through the petals I could just barely make out a creature in the distance. This beast watched me through the storm "In her short life, Scurry manages to reach well beyond her years Scurry reaches deep inside you with her work in a way that reflects the good and evil." -Reginald M. Felton, lobbyist and community activist "E. Tara Scurry is a bright, new, and upcoming author. Storm of Roses is a great balance of internal conflict and reality. This book will make you wrestle with your own beliefs!" -Squire Servance, staff editor, Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy

The Description for this book, In the Storm of Roses: Selected Poems by Ingeborg Bachmann, will be forthcoming.

The Duke of Jervaulx was brilliant and dangerous. Considered dissolute, reckless, and extravagant, he was transparently referred to as the ′D of J′ in scandal sheets, where he and his various exploits featured with frequency. But sometimes the most womanising rake can be irresistible, and even his most casual attentions fascinated the sheltered Maddy Timms, quiet daughter of a simple mathematician.

In 1437, after years of regency, the pious and gentle Henry VI, the Lamb, comes of age and accedes to the English throne. His poor health and frailty of mind render him a weakling king - Henry depends on his closest men, Spymaster Derry Brewer and William de la Pole, Duke of Suffolk, to run his kingdom. Yet there are those, such as the Plantagenet Richard, Duke of York, who believe England must be led by a strong king if she is to survive. With England's territories in France under threat, and rumours of revolt at home, fears grow that Henry and his advisers will see the country slide into ruin. With a secret deal struck for Henry to marry a young French noblewoman, Margaret of Anjou, those fears become all too real. As storm clouds gather over England, King Henry and his supporters find themselves besieged abroad and at home. Who, or what can save the kingdom before it is too late?

Thunder Rose vows to grow up to be more than just big and strong, thank you very kindly--and boy, does she ever But when a whirling storm on a riotous rampage threatens, has Rose finally met her match?

From New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas comes a thrilling and seductive new series that blendsBeauty and the Beast with faerie lore.

Rose Howard is obsessed with homonyms. She's thrilled that her own name is a homonym, and she purposely gave her dog Rain a name with two homonyms (Reign, Rein), which, according to Rose's rules of homonyms, is very special. Not everyone understands Rose's obsessions, her rules, and the other things that make her different – not her teachers, not other kids, and not her single father. When a storm hits their rural town, rivers overflow, the roads are flooded, and Rain goes missing. Rose's father shouldn't have let Rain out. Now Rose has to find her dog, even if it means leaving her routines and safe places to search. Hearts will break and spirits will soar for this powerful story, brilliantly told from Rose's point of view.
