  • Hey pals! Today, we're joined by Hannah and Caroline from the Romance Your TBR podcast to talk about listener suggestion A KINGDOM OF DREAMS by Judith McNaught. If you read one old, old school historical romance, it's gotta be this one, because it's honestly one of the most iconic books of all time. Jenny and Royce are the ultimate Tudor Era enemies turned full on couple goals, and we were giggling and kicking our feet while reading and talking about this book. Enjoy the show!
