## Resource

This week we’re joined by dark romantic suspense author M.C Paas and yeah… we go there. We’re talking morally gray characters you shouldn’t love (but absolutely would risk it all for), high-stakes espionage romance, and the kind of stories that are a little dark, a little dangerous, and very addictive. MC gets real about how writing started as therapy, how her upbringing shaped her gritty storytelling, and why dark romance is having its main character moment right now. Also… we need to discuss Phoenix. Respectfully.
