Lady of Light and Shadows

The romance felt so intertwined with the magic and politics that I wondered how much was planned from the start or if it developed naturally during writing.

The magic system and fae society felt incredibly vivid and layered — I’m curious if the author mapped all of it out beforehand or if it grew as the story progressed.

It added so much depth to the characters and plot, but I wonder whether this duality was inspired by traditional folklore or something the author wanted to explore uniquely.
