Publisher Description
Southern ghosts, Gullah magic, and family secrets collide when the Temple women face the storm of a lifetime.
After rising from servant to tea shop owner, Violet finally feels in charge of her destiny. But as she learns Gullah folk magic from her aging grandmother, she fears their cultural heritage may vanish forever. Can Old Sally pass down her wisdom before it’s too late?
Bride-to-be Queenie refuses to let anything ruin her big day—not ancestral ghosts, not a mysterious wedding crasher, and certainly not the storms swirling over the island.
Rose returns after decades away, still shadowed by her high-society mother’s ghost. Can she find her place in the family before the past claims her?
As the hurricane approaches, this multi generational Southern saga unfolds in a tale rich with Southern humor, heart, and the enduring bonds of family.
If you love Southern gothic literature, coastal small-town fiction, and unforgettable characters, you’ll be swept away by Gullah Secrets. Start reading today!
Customer Reviews
The Temple family is back – three cheers!
Gullah Secrets is the long awaited sequel in the captivating series that began with “Temple Secrets” and I am delighted to say it is as much a spellbinding page-turner as the first book. We are reunited with Old Sally and Queenie and all the other much loved characters, as they get ready to celebrate joyous times ahead. However, tensions run high when ominous forces yet again converge to threaten our beloved extended family’s peaceful, happy life on the shores of South Carolina.
Susan Gabriel is a gifted storyteller, who deftly weaves the tapestry of this delightful clan and all its members’ foibles in this charming story of a culturally blended family. A modern family, steadfast in its unconditional love for all its members, brought together and underpinned by its old Southern roots and the ancient Gullah wisdom.
I am happy to say my eager anticipation in awaiting this book was fully rewarded with an excellent reading experience. I know that if you enjoyed Temple Secrets you will love this sequel, too. I highly recommend it!
