Tori’s back! Join us for a very fun and tangent-ful conversation about what makes us DNF a book (with exceptions) and how to have a successful three-way…CHAT! Not too many triggers in this one, just brief mentions of tropes we generally dislike and why. Funnily enough it was hard for us to be negative so as per usual we ended up talking about book and tropes we absolutely love! Enjoy!

A book that was TOO DARK for Nat, could that even be possible? This is not your run of the mill, standard Dark Romance! SERIOUSLY CHECK THE TRIGGERS IN THIS ONE! Santana did a number on us with this Deep Dive of No Way Out, and it certainly was a WILD ride! Santana broke a lot of romance laws… and regular laws so Lo and Nat had quite the conversation about this Horrific Novella. As always, check the triggers and
enjoy!

OMEGAVERSE TIME BABY! Need we say more? Make you a comfy nest and join us for a knotting good time as we deep dive one of Nat’s favorite Omegaverses: The Awakening by L.V. Lane! This book has it all – a manipulative, morally grey super alpha, a newly awakened Omega with a hidden talent, and a whole lot of SPICE! This book breaks a lot of our “romance rules” but we love it even more for pushing our comfort zones! As always, check the triggers and enjoy!

Join us as Nat and Lo discover a new favorite sub-genre… fluffy dark romance! The trigger warning list on this one is not for the squeamish so maybe don’t listen to this while you eat (especially if you’re eating orzo, beef or cookies and cream ice cream). However, this book was one of the most funny, sweet and overall Rom-Com-esque dark romances we have ever read and we cannot wait for book two in this series! As always, check the triggers and enjoy!

This week the impact Princess herself: Princess Rara joins Nat for a SPANKING good time as we deep dive Sweet Intensity by Zoe Blake. It was an absolute joy to go back to Zoe’s Russian Mafia world where we can check our feminist brain at the door and let our book brain revel in the delicious story about an anti-hero cave man and his sassy banter-full lady, who, of course stands no chance against him.

Join Nat and Tori for the final part of Richard and Lizzie's love story... if you can even call it a love story, the jury is still out on that one! But what we can agree on is that it was a fantastic, dark and twisted tail that really made you stop and think, for a multitude of reasons. Richard's unhinged and absolutely crazy banana pants antics made us question our sanity on many levels but we sure enjoyed the ride! As always, check the triggers and enjoy!

Join us for yet another unhinged episode where Tori’s ADHD runs rampant and Nat can’t keep it reeled in. Technically, this is a Deep Dive episode on Sorcha Black’s Cruel Idols: An Enemies to Lovers MMF Bisexual Romance… but you get much, much more than our opinion on this spicy, kinky, dark romance – including but not limited to bear shifter dick anatomy and a sneak peak into Tori’s life as a kitten. Buckle up trigger tribe, this is another roller coaster of an episode. As always, check the triggers and enjoy!

TORI’S BACK!!!! So, it’sonly fitting that we dive right back into our groove with a Trigger Tribe memberrecommendation: The Pucking Wrong Number by C.R. Jane (thank you Camille). Thisbook surprised both in a good way, we weren’t expecting such a funny yet darkbook all wrapped up in a hockey sports romance with a tattooed “ding-a-ling” totop it off! And that’s exactly why we shouldn’t judge a book by its hunkycover! As always, check the triggers and enjoy!

Join us for something a little different this week! BFF Maxine - Nat’s old college radio cohost joins Nat to deep dive and review the Netflix Blockbuster: 365 Days. Where do we even begin? This unhinged, yet beautifully shot insanity of a movie was trying its best to be a romance but it broke oh so many rules that we simply couldn’t give it that title. We did however howl in laughter thru the entire thing so we give it “5 baby girls”! As always check the triggers and enjoy!

Guard your loins ladiesand gentlemen! Mr. Savage (Nat’s husband) is this week’s extra special guestand he’s giving us his take on Zoe Blake’s Scandals of the Father. It’s safe tosay that his mind was absolutely blown as he wasn’t expecting non-con… or kidnapping,but he was a great (yet highly confused and conflicted) sport. Please note thatthis is not like our regular deep dive episodes and the audio quality is not asgood as normal because Nat was having issues and had to use one microphoneinstead of two. Anyway, as always check the triggers and enjoy! *** THIS EPISODECONTAINS SPOILERS*** ✅ Dark ContemporaryRomance, Billionaire, Age-Gap, Enemies to Lovers, Alpha Hero,Jealous/Possessive Hero, Italian Hero, Italian Heroine, Small Town, Insta-Love,BDSM-adjacent, Daddy Trope, Spanking, Dirty Talk, Feisty Heroine,Boss-Employee. 🚩 DubiousConsent/Non-Consent, Abuse, Violence, Kidnapping ******Upcoming episode:Unhinged Desires – KylieKent ******Find Our Guest Host:At home… he’s an introverted homebody who doesn’t do social media ******Titles mentioned:Sweet Cruelty – Zoe BlakeWicked Games – Zoe BlakeThe Shield and the Axe – M.K.
