Re: Do we need "villains" for a good story?
Thank you for sharing.

Since I write a fair amount of romance, there are plenty of stories that don't have a villain. The big question that comes in the third act or near the end for those novels is whether or not they are going to make it as a couple in the relationship. Sure, I've read some with villains like the one with a stalker ex but many others it is about getting through a problem they have internally in order to reach the step where they can submit love from someone else.
