Küsse für die widerspenstige Lady

The story weaves romance with societal expectations so smoothly. I'm curious if that interplay was planned from the start or developed during writing.

Her secrets add depth, but also make her decisions feel like a tightrope walk. How did others interpret her sense of independence within her context?

The detailed historical backdrop added so much richness. I wonder if the author did extensive research or had a personal connection to this era.
