A collection of nine stories, all set in the south:
“Temple Secrets,” based on the novel, centers on the family matriarch, Iris, her companion, Queenie [Ivy], and the secrets Ivy holds over everyone.
“The Mail Slot” tells the heartwarming story of a young girl, Beth, and her agoraphobic neighbor, Allison Whitworth.
“The End” finds a just-deceased man observing events and wishing he’d paid more attention to his own health.
“Gullah Secrets” returns to the Temple family saga, this time focused on Sally, Rose, Violet, and Ivy.
“Country Obituary - #1 remembers Cecil “Bluebird” Crawford, who has passed away at the age of 102. The bits of irreverence in the death notice are sure to make readers chuckle [just a bit].
“Country Obituary - #2 remembers Cecil’s wife, Maggie, who passed away a short three months after Cecil. The same appealing irreverence appears here.
“River Reunion” brings together ladies of a certain age, all victims of some violent events at the hands of one Jeremy K. Watson. Their pain is palpable; their support for each other heartfelt and uplifting.
“Scarlett and Rhett Redux” is a humorous tale sure to keep readers smiling and giggling.
“The Secret Sense of Wildflower,” based on the novel, takes a heart-wrenching look at families, dealing with loss, and moving forward.
These stories introduce readers to characters that are delightful, strong, quirky, and completely believable. With a strong Southern sense, these enchanting tales evoke a poignancy in the reader as they impart their gentle nuggets of wisdom.
