Broken Harbor

The way the characters kept bumping into each other amidst the suspense made the romance feel so intense. Did that work for others or feel a bit overdone?

The small town atmosphere really amplified the story’s secrets and stakes. I wonder if the author based it on a real place or created it from imagination.

The pacing felt well-managed, but I’m curious whether the romance or the suspense was the primary focus during the writing process or if they evolved together.
