The Marriage Lie

The slow reveal added so much tension, but I wonder if the author planned it from the start or discovered it during writing. Did this approach come naturally?

The betrayal felt so sharp and sudden, which made me question how well I could really know the people I trust. Was that intentional to heighten suspense?

The shifting perspectives and flashbacks kept me guessing, but I wonder what led to the choice of this narrative style—was it planned or evolved during drafts?
