Un Noël Brutalement Joyeux (Série Hockey des Titans de North Shore t. 4)

The story blends intense romance with Christmas festivities, which is an unusual mix. I'm curious whether the holiday setting was always meant to contrast with the darker elements or if it evolved during writing.

The characters' morally gray choices made me question my own sympathies at times. Am I the only one who found myself hoping for their redemption despite their flaws?

The sports backdrop added a unique layer to the characters' interactions, but I'm wondering if this was a personal passion or a creative choice to enhance the story's intensity.
