· 3 pulledThe breakup was really heartbreaking to write because I love these characters, but sometimes you have to make the hard choices that serve the story.
I wanted to subvert the typical rom-com expectations. Just because two characters have chemistry doesn't mean they should be together right away.
That cliffhanger was designed to make people scream at their TVs. I love a good cliffhanger that feels earned, not cheap.
