Wertvoller als Gold (Liebe auf dem Eis)

The slow burn and tension felt so authentic, but I wonder what inspired the choice to make their relationship evolve gradually rather than instantly.

The cold and competitive world of skating seemed to mirror their internal conflicts. Did the setting influence how the romance unfolded?

The push and pull kept me hooked, but I'm curious whether the author had specific experiences or stories in mind when crafting this relationship arc.
