I’ve been getting this question a lot lately … and the answer is “yes!” The characters in the St. Caroline Series books will make appearances throughout the series. I know some of you were disappointed that Lucy and Sterling were not in Hearts on Fire. (Actually, Sterling was, but his scene got cut … sorry!) But both of them play a role in Once in a Lifetime. Ashley Wardman in Once in a Lifetime works as a wedding photographer at the Chesapeake Inn (Sterling is beginning to see the business potential in expanding the Inn’s wedding services). Ash is also friends with Lucy (who has opened her yoga studio).
