This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Lucy Dillon Hello! I'm so glad you enjoyed All I Ever Wanted. It's not part of a series, as such, but all my books (so far) are set in the same town, so characters do reappear from time to time in other stories, if their lives take them into that particular storyline.

I'm guessing that it was Eva's story, rather than Caitlin's, that you felt was left open-ended? That was intentional, to be honest. I try to make my books reflect real life, and some emotional situations don't tie up as neatly as others - trying not to give away any spoilers here! - but I hope it's clear from the decisions Eva makes by the end that her life has changed course, and that she's going to enjoy every step of a journey she didn't expect to take at the start. What she was looking for, I felt, was something in herself, and I definitely think she's found it.

Hmm, cryptic...

I'm writing my next book at the moment, though, and very naturally, Caitlin has reappeared in someone else's storyline - so there may be some opportunities there for some hints as to where Eva has got to in the intervening months.

Thanks for reading, and thanks very much for asking a question!
