Debby Creager...Yes, it does end the way you decide. Thanks for understanding this...I have been overwhelmed by the response people have had to Secret Sister...and frankly, many of them 'got' things I didn't even see about loyalty and love and secrets. Thank you for posting. If you get a chance to read Secret Sister, let me know what you think! - Emelle Gamble
Peggy Roberson, thanks for posting! You bring up a great point...and I agree, I don't ever 'rewrite' an ending, but I must admit I like those old "Lady or the Tiger" kinds of endings occasionally, where the reader can make a case for two differing endings. I didn't think I did that with Secret Sister, but frankly I love that others have made a case for it having a bit darker ending that I intended. Again, many many thanks for posting!
Great observation, Alyson Widen! Yes, many stories aren't all neatly wrapped up, and those are the ones I love the most. I mean, I don't want to be left hanging, but I do like to let my mind conclude what really happened, and how the characters continue. Thanks for posting! Emelle Gamble
