She lives in Brighton on the south coast of England and loves Grey's Anatomy , walking her dog, and running very slowly on the seafront.

Her second novel is Owner of a Lonely Heart.

If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got . . . Gemma is variously trying to keep busy, rebuild her life after a personal tragedy, and start a family. She's also, though she'd hate to admit it, lonely. Dan is attractive, laid back, and terrified of anyone getting to know the real him. He's lonely as well – not that you'd know it if you saw him out with his mates. Casey is Dan's daughter. She's undergoing treatment for a tumour and is lonely too, and scared, but desperately trying to pretend otherwise.

A story of bravery in all its guises, Eva Carter's Owner of A Lonely Heart is about taking the plunge even when it terrifies you – because it's never too late to try doing something different. ...
