I Married a Dryad

I'm curious about how the author envisioned this unique relationship—was it inspired by myth, personal interests, or something else?

Blending aliens, fantasy creatures, and romance can be tricky, but this book managed it. Did the genre mash-up add to or distract from the story for others?

The dryad felt both mysterious and relatable—I'm wondering if this was shaped by myth or original world-building choices.
