Defy You: Un Brother’s Best Friend/Age Gap Romance (Tatuaggi Ribelli Vol. 3)

The chemistry feels so raw and compelling, but I'm curious what the author drew on to create that palpable connection.

The story explores some heavy topics, and I found myself drawn in despite feeling conflicted about certain choices.

It made the characters' development feel more authentic, but I wonder if that contrast was always part of the plan.
