Cross My Heart

The book manages to be both funny and touching, which isn’t easy. I wonder what inspired the approach to keep the tone so authentic and warm.

The found family aspect felt so genuine, but I’m curious if that was based on real experiences or purely fictional magic. How do characters like these come to life so vividly?

The tension and intimacy worked so well within the confined space. I’d love to know if this was inspired by personal experiences or just a storytelling choice.
