The Temple Secrets Series—Temple Secrets and the sequel, Gullah Secrets—is a favorite among readers. Anticipating requests for a third book, I announced in the back of Gullah Secrets that it would be the final book of this series. This did not, however, stop readers from asking and imploring for another book. This is a wonderful problem to have.
So, by now, you’ve already guessed the secret. During these last few weeks of staying at home, I have been playing around with the idea of writing a third and final Temple Secrets book, making it a trilogy like the Wildflower books.
The working title is called Violet’s Tea Shop. I have about 40 pages written, so it’s still in the very beginning stages. The story will continue in Savannah, as well as on the island. It will take place a couple of years after Gullah Secrets ends.
Here’s where you come in. If you have read Temple Secrets and Gullah Secrets, what would you like to see happen in a third book? What questions to do have that you would like to have answered? What would you like to see the characters dealing with?
I welcome any and all thoughts.
By the way, I rarely ask for reader input regarding a novel. So if you feel special, you are! While I may not use what you suggest, here is your chance to share your ideas. I’m listening.
Love,
Susan

I wrote my suggestions in a (for me) lengthy post only to lose it due to an error in my email addy.
I hate to hear that, Kathy. Stuff like that happens to me, too. If you feel like saying more, feel free to email me through the contact form on my website or at susan@susangabriel.com
