Dylan Allen is a USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling romance author. Now she's also writing under the truest name she's ever had -- Lucy Wilson-Tagoe. Lucy joins to talk about her steamy new romantic suspense To Catch a Sinner. We talk her writing journey, the attorney to author pipeline, and some deliciously messy book community drama.
It would be easier to settle for a less ordinary life. Fortunately for us, that's not Lucy's path.

To Catch a Sinner is out now -- wherever you buy your books!
