ガラスのりんご (ハーレクイン・アメリカン・ロマンス)

The mix of genres kept me hooked, but I wonder if the author planned this unique combination from the start or let it evolve naturally during writing.

The pacing felt just right, but I’m curious if the author aimed for that balance or if it naturally emerged through character development.

The setting adds so much flavor and authenticity—was it chosen for personal reasons or for its storytelling potential?
