FAQ
How is a prequel different from a sequel or a spin-off?
Can a prequel change how I feel about the original romance?
Yes—prequels can add new context that makes characters’ choices more understandable or surprising. They can deepen empathy, reveal hidden flaws, or even complicate romantic myths, but they don’t replace the original story’s emotional arc.
Are prequels always canonical?
Not always. Some prequels are official parts of a series’ canon, while others are standalone ‘what if’ stories or author experiments. Check the creator’s notes if you want to know whether events should be treated as part of the main timeline.
