At the suggestion of some listeners, I split the Ads & Features into two parts, in part because it was very long, and also because there are 5 Fridays in May. Woot! You can find Part I here (or in your favorite podcast app). Part II of the Ads & Features from February 2015 features HelenKay Dimon just dropping all sorts of information left and right. We talk about: How many romantic suspense covers look … Continue reading 669. RT Rewind – February 2015 Ads & Features Part II →

This Rec League comes from Juhi. Thanks, Juhi! I have found my way to c-dramas, and I need some recommendations! I started with a Perfect Match which is good, then found Love Like A Galaxy which I LOVE (and still have to watch all of, except I already saw the ending becauseI had to!) and then followed Wu Lei to Amidst A Snowstorm of Love which is hitting ALL MY SWEET SPOTS. I thought I … Continue reading The Rec League: C-Dramas →
Hello, everyone! How are we all doing? I went bridal dress shopping last weekend and it was honestly a really great experience. I hate clothes shopping in general, and I was concerned that the pressure of finding such an important garment would only heighten those negative feelings. My stylist was so lovely and supportive. As someone bigger chested, I was also super dubious that I didn’t need a bra in these dresses, but she was … Continue reading Links: Good Causes, Owls, & More →

Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey is $1.99! This is book one in the Big Shots series and features a golfer, which we don’t often see in sports romance. I think I remember Elyse reading and liking this one (Elyse, please correct me if I’m wrong!). Apologies if this is an expiring KDD.

This HaBO comes from Mehreen, who is searching for this romance: Okay, so I read this book quite some time ago. I think it was published pre-2022 or 2020. It’s adult erotica and its dark. And the fact that I cant remember its name is driving me wild. The heroine meets a guy in a gallery or a museum of some sort and she thinks he’s quite handsome and they have a nice chat. They … Continue reading HaBO: Captor/Captive Romance Where They Meet at a Museum →
