  • HBs! We have discovered IMPROMPTU MATCH by Lily Mayne and we'll never be the same again! This is part one, in which we meet depressed and unfulfilled human Taylor Hough.

Until he accidentally gets mistaken for a stripper and he enters a secret world of sexy, wrestling monsters! Y'all. This book is SO funny, SO sweet, and SO hot. It's ridiculous. Make sure to come back for part 2 as well!

  • Hey HBs! We're doing our first re-release since Sabrina became Mel's full-time partner-in-crime! This is part 1 of THE WARLORD WANTS FOREVER by Kresley Cole!

    Since we announced that our next Patreon Deep Dive is going to be the first 10ish books in the Immortals After Dark series, starting at book 3, we've had a bunch of Listener saying "but what about books 1 and 2?!" The answer to that is Sabrina and I started this journey over a year ago on the main feed! So, this week we're re-releasing our recap of book one! We've got two immortals, one femme fatale, one warlord hot dummy, 1 five year boner, fated hostage-takings, savage goodbyes, memorable reunions, VERY questionable/dubious/non-existent consent (also enthusiastic consent), and so much more! Could this be viewed as problematic? Sure. Did we super love it? Very yes.

    Bonus content: series hopping and existential crises, Forebears/Four Bears, brains while reading, noodle fuckery, and more.

  • Hey HBs!! The pals are back with HOW THE MARQUESS WAS WON by Julie Anne Long! When we left off, Jules had asked Phoebe to become his mistress and she turned him down HARD. Now these two crazy kids are, unbeknownst to either of them, both heading to London for more balls and other EnglandTimes ish. While Phoebe basks in the glow of being the crowd favorite, he discovers a dastardly wager is behind it. Also, he still needs to marry her friend and why can't she just understand that?!

  • Hey HBs!! Mel and Sabrina are recapping HOW THE MARQUESS WAS WON by Julie Anne Long! We've got a lowly school teacher who is drafted to be the paid companion of a former pupil and a Marquess who has a plan, gosh darnit! And it does NOT include becoming enamored of his hopeful fiancée's pal! But there's a country party, an opera singer, a forest ramble, and a final dance party that will prove too much for him to resist temptation!

    Bonus Content: more texting faux pas, HUGE growth from Sabrina that will never be repeated, another stoic hero who's catnip, naming characters with word association and phonetic slides, cunning linguists, universal American experiences, beaver/raccoon hats, and so much more!

    Bonus Content: rich people shit, useless Tops, gendered vs. neutral terms, a not-so-survival trope, and so much more!

    Lady Loves:

    Mel: checking out movies from the library and, more specifically, WAITRESS the musical!

Family movie time turned into Mel quietly crying into Ember's hair because everything was so beautiful.

    Sabrina: interactions with HBs! HB Devon came through with some really great genetic statistics in answer to our call during our ep on A HUNGER LIKE NO OTHER and HB Emily gave Sabrina a masterclass on the British upper crust during a chat about the Maiden Lane series. HBS ARE THE BEST.

  • Hey HBs! Today we're bringing you part 1 of THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY by Megan Bannen! Mercy is trying to save her family's undertaking business and things would be a lot easier if a certain surly marshal would just leave her alone. Meanwhile, Hart is a demigod just trying to do his job and this bright and shiny undertaker has nothing but rain clouds for him. But a letter addressed by the heart brings these enemies together in the most unexpected way!

    Bonus Content: Mel flails at Sabrina via text because she had TOO MANY FEELINGS about this book!

    Tomorrow we'll be back with the conclusion of this wonderful book. Take this opportunity to add it to your TBR!

  • Hey y’all! We’re popping into your feed with an exciting announcement: Heaving Bosoms is joining the BLEAV Network! (pronounced “believe”) First, HBs: THANK YOU for all your support! We got on their radar because you listen; without you, we’re shouting into the void. Y’all are so badass.

    We’re really excited about this next phase of Heaving Bosoms because there’s so much that happens behind the scenes and having the support of a network can be incredibly helpful. We want to grow the HB reader community, introduce more people to the joy of romance, and spend our time focusing on the recaps we deliver, instead of the nitty gritty admin that makes podcasts go.

    So! There will be a few changes for the foreseeable future:

    You’ll hear ads for more than just romance books in our episodes (but romance books and small business will ALWAYS get precedence!! Email heavingbosomspodcast @ gmail dot com for more info on independent advertising) We’ll be publishing episodes in two parts, which will come out every Monday and Tuesday.This new format was a network suggestion and we’re going to give it a whirl! You still get an HEA every week, we’re just packaging it in less intimidating run times. We always listen to your feedback, so feel free to let us know your thoughts!

    As a result, we’re also revamping our Patreon offerings! Everyone who is a member of the Consent Boner tier and up by Wednesday, 9/11 at 12pm ET will be grandfathered in with their current benefits PLUS same day and ad free episodes. After that, we’re rolling out new tiers that give you more power to mix and match to get the bennies you really want. Follow our socials for more info on that!

    One thing we can promise, though, is that the show isn’t changing. We still have complete creative control, so don’t expect us to suddenly be staid and classy. You’ll be disappointed!

    Keep being a Badass!

    Melody and Sabrina

  • Hey HBs! Mel and Sabrina are mad and they are recapping IT HAD TO BE YOU by Susan Elizabeth Phillips. This is a doozy! Good news, though, Mel's bringing back the custom intros... so that's fun!

    Content Warnings: episode includes discussions of sexual assault, including in young childhood, on-page violent rape, statutory rape, rampant misogyny, malicious thinness, kink shaming, slut shaming, fat shaming, Madonna/Whore Complex, racism, and more.

    Lady Loves:

    Sabrina: having a group of badass, wonderful friends who will lift you up and remind you how you've advocated for yourself in the past after a terrible experience with a medical doctor.

    Mel: deciding to never read another SEP book on pod or off. Whatever author shows you that you can't trust them to take care of you as a reader, don't read them anymore! Romancelandia is huge and gorgeous and there's something out there for everyone!
