My Last: Riley & Chelle

The setting adds a unique layer to the characters' relationship, but I'm curious whether that was inspired by personal experience or research. Did it shape the emotional stakes?

Their banter and shared moments felt genuine, but I wondered if that was intentional to make the friends-to-lovers transition smoother.

It’s a classic, but the way it was handled felt fresh. I’d love to know what motivated the author to explore this dynamic in this context.
