Amantes y enemigos

I'm curious about the research and personal reasons behind choosing this specific time period for the novel. Did the author want to explore certain themes or stories from that era?

The characters' struggles with loyalty and betrayal felt so visceral — I kept wondering how much of their decisions were driven by personal morality versus circumstance.

The historical aspects felt authentic without overwhelming the story. I'm interested in how the author approached blending history with fiction to keep both engaging.
