    When two charmingly single strangers agree to swap cities for the holidays, they get way more than they bargained for!

  • We read Zoey Draven's Taken by the Horde King this week and we definitely needed a quick refresher on the world-building!

    It's been a hot minute since we were on the planet with the Hordes but they have been missed. There is nothing quite like an alien romance to cleanse your reading pallet, and your smutty soul.

    Come with us as we dip our toes into a mysterious red mist threatening the planet, a magical human woman who can control it because... Plot reasons, a fated mate, a dark evil, and some serious trauma. This one is full of triggers friends including domestic violence (not the main mc), torture, maiming, murder, ritual sacrifice, SA, and more. So listen and read with care.

  • We Read This Terrible Book So You Don’t Have To: A Review of Pen Pal by J.T. Geissinger

    Rarely do books leave you feeling this bewildered. Pen Pal by J.T. Geissinger tries to be an edgy, dark romance but ends up being a chaotic blend of clichés, forced angst, and questionable plot twists. Right from the start, it’s clear that something doesn’t quite add up — and unfortunately, that vibe never improves.

    The premise is interesting enough: a grieving widow starts receiving letters from an anonymous admirer, and their correspondence quickly becomes intense. But rather than diving into a suspenseful, engaging story, the book takes wild turns that feel more like attempts to shock than to develop a coherent plot. The romance itself lacks depth, and instead of chemistry, we’re served a strange mix of over-the-top declarations and contrived drama that often leaves you rolling your eyes.

    Character motivations are poorly developed, and the plot holes are glaring. The writing occasionally shows promise, but even Geissinger’s usual knack for emotional depth feels muddled here. The twist, which should have been a major reveal, feels less like a revelation and more like a desperate attempt to salvage the story’s lack of structure.

    If you’re looking for a dark romance with intensity and genuine suspense, Pen Pal might just leave you disappointed. Save yourself the frustration — we read this one so you don’t have to.

  • In a super fun chat with romance author Rosie Danan, she shared a bit about her writing journey, and honestly, it was like catching up with a friend over coffee! Rosie talked about how living in England sparked some new ideas for her stories, but also how the pandemic really shaped her latest book. She said there's a big theme of losing control in it, which totally reflects how she felt during that time—relatable, right?

    We also got into how she’s always trying to up the "sexy" in her books by adding fresh, unexpected elements. She's all about blending the magic and real world in a way that just clicks, like it’s totally normal for wild, magical things to happen.

    Rosie’s working on setting goals and finding a routine that lets her really focus on writing, and she’s even debating whether or not she wants to go full-time as an author. It was so cool to hear how she's balancing everything while still figuring out her next steps!

  • Y'all we have an excellent interview and conversation for you today on the podcast with author B.K. Borison. Her new book, Business Casual, book 4 of the Lovelight Farms series, is out now (!) and is a lovely, cozy, sweet contemporary romance.

    We chatted about her journey from writing book number 1 of the series as an indie author, to completing the series as a traditional author with Berkeley.

    B.K. was open with us about how bittersweet the end of this series is for her, how quickly her life as a writer changed over the last three years, and being excited for future books she's finished writing that have yet to be published.

    B.K. shared the vulnerability of sharing her first novel with her husband, friends, and the world. How funny it is when her friends and family "discover" that she is an actual published author with books on the shelf at Target, Barnes and Noble, and indie bookstores. Her hilarious battle with the Target bookseller at her local Target when she's trying to sign the books.

    Bridget rants yet again about how annoying it is that genres that bring joy don't win as many awards.

    B.K. shares what she can about her future series, and whether she'd ever revisit the Lovelight Farms world, hint, it's cracked open and there are breadcrumbs to find!

  • Bridget's favorite book in season 3! You guys this book is everything we wanted a summer quickie to be! Fun, sexy, charming, complex yet quick to read, and with hot, hot sex scenes.

    Shani took the week off (no audiobook on this one), so we had a wonderful guest host, Ann! Ann is Bridget’s older sister and was the first person to give her a romance novel. Since then they have read aloud dozens of novels on cross-country road trips and loved to squeal over the feels and the sex scenes alike. Enjoy their hilarious sisterly banter and ability to finish each other’s sentences as we talk about this excellent book!

  • HOT DAMN!!!! We thought the Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang was going to be a fun, romantic jaunt, but in reality, it is a sexy, sexy thrill ride.

    Hear us as we wax poetic about our this pairing and the mixture of absolute dynamite sex scenes, with sweet sweet romance.

    Stella has Asperger's and French kissing reminds her of a shark getting its teeth cleaned by pilot fish. Her conclusion: she needs lots of practice — with a professional. Which is why she hires escort Michael Phan.

  • Enjoy our interview with Pepper Winters. This was one of our first international interviews, and she was a delight.

    Dark romance author Pepper Winters is here today to talk about us about tiny horses!! And also writing romance novels with lots of taboo.

    Pepper is the author of Goddess Isles and Dollar Series and Tears of Tess, which we covered earlier this season, and in this episode, she breaks down taboos and shares with us her creative writing process. She gives useful advice for authors on how to stick to their creative process, diving deep into the common dilemma of being forced to say "yes" to contracts you're not comfortable with.

    You may have seen Pepper's horses and rabbits on Instagram and if not you need to treat yourself!

    Full transcript on the website here.

  • In Season 3 of "Bridgerton" on Netflix, the series continues to follow the romantic escapades of the Bridgerton family. This season focuses on the third eldest sibling, Benedict Bridgerton, and his quest for love and self-discovery. Amidst London's high society, Benedict grapples with his artistic ambitions and the pressures of finding a suitable match. His journey intertwines with the arrival of a mysterious newcomer who challenges societal norms and captures his heart. Meanwhile, Lady Whistledown's scandalous gossip keeps everyone on edge, revealing secrets that threaten reputations. Eloise Bridgerton's rebellious spirit leads her into unexpected alliances, and Penelope Featherington's unrequited love for Colin Bridgerton faces new trials. Family dynamics are tested as old wounds resurface and new bonds are forged. The season promises a blend of romance, intrigue, and the opulence of the Regency era.

  • Scarlett Peckham interview was a delight if you missed it!

    If you already listened to our review of The Duke I Tempted, the first book in this series, you may already be guessing that we are loving this author and series. Shani loves nothing more than some historical romance and some excellently written nitty gritty and Bridget was here for the quippy dialogue, strong heroine, unrequited love on both sides, and of course, the nookie.

    Listen as we laugh over some of the best moments in the book and talk about some of our ideas around BDSM and kink in real life, and in novels.

  • Dear gentle listeners it's been a while, but we are back in Julia Quinn's Bridgerton world. We decided before season 3 of the Netflix Bridgerton show aired, we would read Romancing Mr. Bridgerton. Well, color us surprised to realize this was NOT our favorite Bridgerton book!

    Bridget went on about 20 rants during this episode and we posited some thoughts about what we thought would happen in S3 of the Netflix series!

    You can listen to our review of Book 1 here.

    We had the delightful pleasure of interviewing Julia Quinn a few years ago and you can hear that interview here.
