Book cover of the first widows. For thriller Thursday. With little arrows pointing to information about the book.

The title says under the cover. Then it’s a picture of a page from the first widows. With certain sentences highlighted in different colors.

Two people are facing one another. On the left is Tamlin, who is tall with long, wavy brown hair with primroses in it. The faerie wears a plaid in various shades of green with leafy embellishments. Tamlin’s smiling down at the woman, gently holding her chin with his thumb.

Lark, the woman on the right, has long, tawny hair tied halfway back with a thin ribbon, a white rose behind her left ear. She wears a long sleeved dress in a sandy color and holds a basket full of flower in the crook of her arm. Lark is looking up at Tamlin.

The two are surrounded by rose bushes in pastel colors. 

The image is framed in black with an intricate bronze border. In the foreground there is the title in white letters with purple borders: β€œMy Thorns For Your Roses” with the author’s name β€œKristen Argyres” below.

In small text above the woman, next to the man’s head are the words β€œThe Cairnwood Reel Series.”
