Goodreads asked Patricia Sands:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Patricia Sands My most recent book, Promises To Keep, is a sequel to The Promise of Provence which I published in 2013. When I published The Promise of Provence, I had no intention of writing anything more about that story. However, I received a deluge of emails from readers saying they wanted to know what happened next! So I had to figure that out.

What has happened is that The Promise of Provence is now being developed into the Love In Provence series. Promises to Keep is Book Two of the series and there will be four more novels that follow Katherine's adventure in the south of France.

I'm delighted readers became so engaged with the story and feel fortunate that I can continue to write about the south of France, since I love it there! I've become fond of the characters and had a good time developing new personalities that had to enter the story to move it forward. Who knows what will happen next? That's part of the great fun and challenge of writing fiction.
