Flambards Divided ending? Spoilers

I ask here because I dont know of anywhere else where you can ask these questions and more than likely get answers.

This is right at the end when she is riding back to Flambards after previously talking with Dick, Christina gets on her horse and says if I make it back to the stables before it goes (the sun) I'll be happy. Then there is the details of her riding and she is right in front of the gate and she knows she will not be make it unless she jumps.

"What had dick said? "There's no changing nature." But the sun was showing only a scarlet fingernail. Ceasefire jumped, and the dark wood swallowed them."

My question is, do you think she made it and was thus happy or did she fall? My mum reckons she fell...I, the happy romantic, like to think she made it and was thus happy. I assume its suppose to be up to the reader to decide.
