War of Her Heart

The dark tone really heightened the stakes and made the enemies-to-lovers dynamic more intense. I'm curious whether this was a deliberate choice to match the romance's tone or if it evolved during writing.

Her actions seemed morally complex, which made me question what I would do in her place. Am I the only one who felt torn about her decisions?

The tension between the characters was so compelling, and I wonder if the author drew from classic enemies-to-lovers tropes or crafted something entirely new in this fantasy context.
