The Wicked Baron

His initial cruelty was shocking, but I couldn't help rooting for him to change. Did this shift feel earned or rushed to others?

The historical details added so much richness, but I'm curious whether the author had a specific reason for choosing this period or if it evolved naturally during writing.

Their chemistry was intense, but I wonder how much planning went into the gradual shift from hostility to love. Did the author have a particular roadmap?
