Editorial Director Vicky Blunden has acquired World All Language rights, including film and TV, in two new women’s fiction novels by US author Caitlin Weaver. The first, publishing in January 2026, is a powerful and suspenseful drama about a mother battling for her own independence and for custody of her son in the wake of her marriage breakdown, who finds support in a community of other single moms. This is an addictive story about our most primal needs: to protect our children, to belong somewhere, and to finally take control of our own story.

Caitlin Weaver’s gripping, emotional women’s fiction novels are about family secrets, the trials of modern motherhood, and the things that happen behind closed doors. Her debut, Such a Good Family, was an instant hit when it published to rave reviews in 2024, and she’s since built an impressive following with her subsequent books.

Weaver says,

“I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my career than with Storm, and I’m equally thrilled to be planning my fifth and sixth books with them. Their ongoing support and forward-thinking approach to publishing continues to inspire me, and I’m beyond grateful for our partnership.”

Blunden says,

“It’s hard to believe it’s only a year since Caitlin Weaver’s debut was published, she has such a dedicated fanbase of loyal readers already and is an amazingly accomplished writer. She gets to the heart of complex family dynamics and women’s experiences honestly and with such insight, precision and compassion. It’s a true joy to be working on more books with Caitlin. Like all of her fans I look forward to reading everything she writes and know every book is going to have me gripped from the first page.”
