Bad Girl Reputation

Her bold attitude really stood out, but I wonder if her character was based on someone Elle Kennedy knew or if she crafted her from scratch. Did any real-life experiences influence her?

Their struggles with reputation and vulnerability felt so raw, but I kept wondering if they were sometimes too impulsive. Was that intentional to show their growth?

The narration really brought the characters to life, but I'm curious if the author envisioned it as a purely written story or if she worked closely with the narrator to shape the tone.
