Red dirt heart tome 2 : Partir ou rester

The setting adds so much charm, but I wonder if it captures the real challenges or if it's more idyllic. Did anyone else feel immersed in the scenery?

I loved the moments of vulnerability, but at times it felt like the emotional stakes were heightened for drama. Was that intentional to keep the story engaging?

The chemistry between the characters felt so genuine. I'm curious whether the author drew from personal experiences or crafted it entirely from imagination.
