Convict (Bastard Brothers of Carnage 2)

The story's intense atmosphere really drew me in, but I'm curious if the author intentionally aimed for a specific emotional impact or if it evolved naturally during writing.

The tension kept me hooked, but some moments made me uneasy — was that feeling something the author wanted to evoke or just part of the story's raw edge?

The contrast was striking and made the romance feel more intense. I wonder what guided the choice to intertwine these elements so closely.
