I still haven't figured out what the Thorn really wanted with that necklace-- Unless, of course she's secretly... Nah, that's ridiculous! Who'd ever believe a quiet little thing like Rose Forrest could also be the stunning Thorn!

Synopsis for "A Rose By Any Other Name!"
Dr. Brad Roberts has found a way of submerging the Thorn personality beneath Rose Forrest as long as she wears a necklace of his devising.
