Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood
13 juni 2023 · 33 min
We really loved this book, Jack is the best hero she's ever written. The tropes here are pretty close to the first two books, but she really does something new with them here! We're hoping for some new situations with her next book, because topping this one would be really hard. Lees meer

2 juni 2023 · 31 min
There is a lot of trauma packed into this novella. Milan is a good author who is capable of deftly handling some heavy issues in romance. The question, dear listener, is if you can get past the subject matter to fall for the characters.

30 mei 2023 · 21 min
You'd think a book about two people stuck on a deserted island waiting for rescue would be stressful, but this one isn't at all. Caro and Max know their friends and family are fine and rescue is coming, so they get to focus on more important things. We liked it. Lees meer

Unexpected road trips and a fantastic epilogue made this a fun read, if you can handle a lack of communication as the central conflict.

What Happens in the Ballroom by Sabrina Jeffries
11 mei 2023 · 16 min
"What Happens in the Carriage House" would have been a more accurate title.
-

-
Surrendering to the Duke by Stevie Sparks

This book has so many trigger warnings and yet is also exceptionally hot? This is pretty much the whole book.
-

Penvale and Jane agree to get married because they both love the same house, but Jane's hoping she can live in it solo. In excellent romance novel form, she realizes being with Penvale might be better than being alone, but we wish the realization process had been less ambiguously frightening and more explicitly f... More explicit. Lees meer
-
Dino Stud by Lola Faust
14 april 2023 · 18 min
We read a dino book, you guys. It was a whole thing (but also not as strange as we were ready for).
-
Once Upon a Maiden Lane by Elizabeth Hoyt
11 april 2023 · 25 min
We end Maiden Lane with the least angst-y Hoyt ever? There are only three content warnings! Worth it for the reunion at the end alone.
-
Ana Maria and the Fox by Liana de la Rosa
7 april 2023 · 34 min
Ana Maria is super into this dude but she's engaged to someone else and she's too much trouble for him. The first 70% of the book is described by the jacket, so if it sounds interesting it will be exactly what you expect.
-

A Spinster's Guide to Danger and Dukes by Manda Collins
24 maart 2023 · 27 min
This novel was super delightful! There was a lot of romance novel hijinks and some very heavy issues but the book managed to have so much levity and fun without every feeling dark or angsty. It's not deep, but it's a great time.
-
The Build Up by Tati Richardson
21 maart 2023 · 21 min
Contemporary workplace romance isn't usually our thing, but we really liked these characters!
-
A Tempest at Sea by Sherry Thomas
17 maart 2023 · 31 min

-
A Witch's Guide to Fake Dating a Demon by Sarah Hawley
6 maart 2023 · 27 min
We're apparently on a monster romance in a normal world kick, and this entry is really fun! Our biggest discussion centered around how annoying it is to have individuals in delayed adolescence due to personal wealth giving a critique of capitalism, but he's a demon so it's not like that was the most unrealistic thing. Lees meer
-
The Neighbor Favor by Kristina Forest
3 maart 2023 · 26 min
Laine and Meg really enjoyed this contemporary romance! The characters felt centered in a way that made us believe in the absurd conflict, and we loved all of the references to sci-fi and fantasy. Check this one out!
-
Duke of Pleasure by Elizabeth Hoyt
28 februari 2023 · 42 min
Maiden Lane continues to be fluffy, low angst, easy reading *sarcasm ends here*. Kyle and Alf are both very cool characters who maybe don't have the most chemistry? Idk, I'm dreading the next one.
-
Artfully Yours by Joanna Lowell
24 februari 2023 · 36 min
Laine and Meg really enjoyed the latest from Joanna Lowell about a hipster who cultivated his aesthetic for the cred and a girl who's never before felt "seen". Except historical. And they're both awesome. And there's a lot of art.
-
Ship Wrecked by Olivia Dade
21 februari 2023 · 33 min
We are so excited to finally release this episode and are so proud of the union! This book is an awesome return to Avon, and it gave us a lot to talk about. We both loved this book, but it prompted interesting conversations about where we require realism.in our romance novels and how much fan culture we can take. Lees meer
-
Say Goodbye to Hollywood by Jenny Trout
17 februari 2023 · 31 min
You know we love talking romance novels, so getting to talk meta analysis of romance novels within a romance novel might be our favorite thing. If you were also fascinated by the moment in time when 50 Shades of Grey took over romance, this BDSM romance critique of that book will be super fun. Lees meer
-
Radiant Sin by Katee Robert
14 februari 2023 · 33 min
Laine and Meg both really enjoyed the main couple here, with Cassandra's attitude and Apollo's bossiness working extremely well in tandem. We're left with a lot of unanswered questions about the wider plot, but is that really the point?
-
Once Upon a Moonlit Night by Elizabeth Hoyt
10 februari 2023 · 20 min
This Novella is quick and fun, but after so many books of build up we were mostly surprised that Hippolyta Royle is resolved with so little fanfare. It's quick and fun ... and over before you know it.
-
The Worst Woman in London by Julia Bennet
8 februari 2023 · 31 min
Divorce is hard. It was even harder in 19th century England. Freedom comes at a price, and may require resisting your husband's very hot friend.
-
Duke of Sin by Elizabeth Hoyt
3 februari 2023 · 39 min
This book is WILD. Val is less morally ambiguous than totally unhinged, which was a unique reading experience to say the least.
-
In Which Matilda Halifax Learns the Value of Restraint by Alexandra Vasti
31 januari 2023 · 27 min
Alexandra Vasti is doing some really interesting things with this series. You know we love independent women, and one who illustrates sex pamphlets is hella fun. This Novella packs a lot more in than the first, which sometimes felt like too much. Overall, we really enjoyed it and look forward to whatever she puts out next. Lees meer
-
Barbarian's Prize by Ruby Dixon
27 januari 2023 · 41 min
We change it up this week with Meg explaining a book to Laine. It is the mark of an excellent friendship when one of you can tell the other to skip a book, and neither one questions the judgment.
-
The Orc from the Office by Kate Prior
23 januari 2023 · 19 min
If a massive size difference in a monster romance is your sexy sweet spot, you'll probably love this book. Meg and Laine could have used more corporate satire and criticism of capitalism in our romance, but maybe we're the only ones.
-
A Love by Design by Elizabeth Everett
20 januari 2023 · 32 min
The third entry in this series was written specifically for Meg. Rupert Carsington is a virgin hero.
-
Love, Laugh, Lich by Kate Prior
16 januari 2023 · 18 min
Contemporary monster romance isn't usually our ish, but the corporate satire, not to mention the mysteries of the hero's body (like what form is it), kept us both super engaged. Unique, funny, and utterly weird in the best way.
-
Midnight Duet by Jen Comfort
13 januari 2023 · 38 min
Meg (a lifetime Phantom fangirl) and Laine (a Phantom newb) both really loved this modern, gender-swapped, Phantom of the Opera retelling. Very sexy, very funny, and very tongue in cheek, this checked all of our boxes.

Nice Earls Do by Susanna Craig
3 januari 2023 · 18 min
This teaser novella definitely has us excited for Craig's new series! Yes, we are suckers for a low-angst book between adults who know what they want.
-
A Wicked Game by Kate Bateman
30 december 2022 · 24 min
Kate Bateman doesn't know the meaning of the word "enemy" but she does know exactly how to write sexy and low angst romance.
