Sweet Tea and Secrets

The town feels so inviting and vivid—I'm curious whether the author based it on a real place or crafted it from imagination, and what drew her to this setting.

I loved how the secrets slowly unraveled but stayed light enough to keep the story cozy. Was that balance intentional or did it evolve during writing?

The mix of genres kept me guessing but also made the story feel warm and engaging. Wondering if this was a deliberate choice from the start.
