Declaration of Courtship

Nalini Singh masterfully combines paranormal elements with a romantic plot. I'm curious what sparked this particular mix and how it influenced the story's development.

The story's length allowed for a tight narrative, but I wondered if the pacing was intentionally designed to mirror the swift nature of courtship in the story.

The powers felt integral to the romance and world-building. I'm interested in whether these details were planned from the beginning or evolved organically during writing.
