Contre vents et marées

The story seamlessly weaves suspense with romance, but I wonder if the pacing or tone shifted intentionally at certain points. Was this a challenge during writing?

The dark magic scenes were intense and vivid, making me wonder how much research or personal experience influenced the depiction of supernatural powers.

The world-building feels richly detailed and immersive. I'm curious whether the author envisioned this city from the start or developed it alongside the plot.
