"For (the politican couple), it's almost a negotiation - I know what I want. Are you able to give it to me? And just having that back and forth."

Romance Author Alicia Wilder created a not-so-secret, forced proximity romance set in Washington DC with likeable characters to boot in My Secret Vice. She walked through the process of toeing the line between politics and passion and talks about building a West Wing-type romance with emotional depth, older MCs, ambitions, and respecting power balance.
