Fighting Fate

The tension between the characters felt so genuine, but I wonder what inspired the specific conflicts. Did the author aim to subvert common clichés?

The characters’ circumstances made it intense, but I kept questioning if the 'forbidden' aspect was more about societal expectations than actual barriers. What about others?

The college backdrop added a certain energy and stakes to their romance. Curious if the setting was chosen for symbolic reasons or because it was personally meaningful.
