Dark Romance, But How Dark?
Happy Friday!
Every now and then my writer friends and I will debate what constitutes dark romance. Like many things, there is a spectrum. Some authors dip the tip of their toes while others scuba dive into the darkness.
One of the things that I always wonder is which pool to go into. My debut novel, Inescapable, showcases a toxic relationship and Gio thus far is the king of toxicity when it comes to my male main character. I love him, but he gets a lot of hate for his behavior, so I pulled back a lot from that type of hero.
Ever since, my dark mafia heroes have embodied the mafia lifestyle without crossing the lines Gio did. But I wonder, do you want more heroes who will kidnap, humiliate, and manipulate his love interest?
Let me know what you wish you could read more of. Take the poll here.
