Vicious Cycle

The characters' struggles felt very raw and authentic, but balancing pain with hope must have been challenging. I'm curious how much of that was based on personal experience or research.

The chemistry was intense, but the darker themes made it hard to fully root for the happy ending. How did others interpret the balance between love and trauma in this story?

The contemporary backdrop felt very real, but I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or just crafted it from imagination to reflect certain struggles.
