Read Episode 1 of The Way of Thorn & Key!

Meet Poppy Travers

Born in 1994 to Azalea and Noah Travers, Poppy grew up along the beach of Central California. Sadly, tragedy struck early, and her mother disappeared after Poppy’s first birthday, leaving Noah to raise her on his own. Despite their loss, Noah was a kind and encouraging father and instilled in Poppy a love for art and the ocean off their doorstep.

Now, in 2018, pursuing a degree in marine biology, Poppy is unsure what to do next. The death of her father to cancer has left her feeling unmoored and alone. Should she continue in her chosen path or pursue her true passion of watercolor painting, embracing her dreams like her father wished she would?

An invitation to Primula is coming, and Poppy will have to believe in herself to live the life of her dreams. Will she open the door to her future?
