El Arreglo (La Familia Ferro) (The Arrangement (The Ferro Family) nº 1)

The complex relationships and control themes add tension, but I'm curious how much of that was drawn from real-world influences or purely fictional.

I felt like the buildup took some time, which made the intense scenes more impactful. Wondering if this was a deliberate choice or just my reading experience.

The erotica is vivid but also seems to serve character development. Do you think the explicit parts enhance the story or sometimes overshadow the plot?
