A formal company dinner - a thin veil of mockery - and the touch of a rose’s thorns.

Sarah Grisham, office assistant, embraces the proper conduct for an ambitious woman in the mid-1980s. After all, she has royal connections even if they’re somewhat tenuous. And Ashley Adams, well, what can you say? She’s the new salesgirl from the west, and a small, rural town at that.

These two women may inhabit the same corporate world, but which one is truly naive?

The Rose, like all of the short stories in the ‘80s Tales of a Traveling Saleslady series, is a work of fiction based on the real-life experiences of the author. The final section, "The Story Behind the Story," is an autobiographical memoir, including author notes that detail the transformational moments experienced by the author.
