Hey everyone! Now, a lot of people who read my first story, Three Simple Words, requested a sequel to the story. Due to on-growing demand, my editor, Candace, and I decided to write a sequel. It’s a long, multi-chaptered story taking place one year, much like the sequel, after the war!

Here is the title & summary:

---

Roses & Thorns

Sequel to Three Simple Words. After the war, not everything is happiness and sunshine. Shikamaru and Ino are thrown into a chaotic story of cheating, scandals, and possibly another war?

At first, I didn’t really want to do a sequel, but to tell you the truth, writing this story has been really fun. I’m confident it’ll come out well.

Please read & review!
