Hello Elizabeth;) I hope my question will not be out of place. Do you plan to evolve a little further relationships between Bridget and Lazarus/Amelia Caire or Val and Lazarus? Because the past of each person is bound to affect their now enormously, and this now as I understand is outlined to be a family one. Are you sure you are not going to write an additional epilogue?

Hi Ekaterina,
Frankly I don't think so, even thought I'd really like to. I always wanted to do a novella for the elder Lady Caire, which would be a bit of a stretch since she's in her late 50's-early 60's--NOT the normal age of a romance heroine! But I think she's a very interesting character with a tragic life.
However, it looks like I won't be including these characters with any depth in the one book and two novellas I'm still contracted for to end the Maiden Lane series. I try to make a point of only bringing a character back if it serves the needs of the current book/novella.
I still get reader mail asking about characters in the Princes books (now over ten years old) and the Legend of the Four Soldiers series. I think it's practically impossible to wrap up all the threads in a series, especially one as long as Maiden Lane.
And at this point I've already started planning for my next series... Which means I have years yet of reader mail asking why I never wrote about so and so from the Maiden Lane series. ;-)

Hi, Elizabeth. I've just completed you whole Maiden Lane series again. Getting ready for Montgomery's story. I'm curious if you have a story brewing for Alf??? I have scenarios rolling in my mind for her story and I'm not even the authoress.☺ I love your stories and read through them all each time a new one comes out.

I am re-reading the whole Maiden Lane Series in prep for Duke of Sin and I appreciate the skill, subtlety and heart in the series even more on my third read of the stories. Just finished Duke of Midnight and was struck by the detailed descriptions of the homes and escape routes of Max and St. John. Do or did these buildings and their secret entrances and rooms exist in London or did you create them from imagination?
