Rules of Our Own

The story seamlessly switches between high-stakes hockey games and tender relationship scenes. I'm curious if this contrast was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The tension was so well built that I found myself rooting for them even in quiet moments. I wonder if the author aimed for a more understated romance or intended to turn up the heat.

It's a less common trope in sports romance, and it added a unique layer to the story. I'm interested in what led to that creative choice and how it shaped the characters' arcs.
