Testa a testa

The mix of romance and thriller kept me hooked, but I wonder if the pacing was intentionally slow to develop both aspects equally. What do you think led to that approach?

Their history added depth to the romance, but at times I wondered if it overshadowed the mystery. How did others perceive the tension between personal and external conflicts?

The atmosphere felt very deliberate, and I’m curious whether the author drew from personal experiences or chose the location to enhance the story’s mood.
