I'm SOOOO excited that my mom and sister could be on this episode with me. We all have loved this series so it made sense to read them together so that we can talk about it here on the podcast. I'm glad we did because there were so many details that came out in this episode that I never would've thought about before!

I hope you enjoy!

The Dragon King is looking for a wife.

This news throws the women in my village into a tizzy. The king will be sending out the royal guard to bring women of childbearing age to his castle in Jade City.

There is only one requirement: the woman must carry enough magic to produce an heir for him.

I’m a watered-down human with a mere ten percent dragon magic lineage, I know I won’t be chosen, but for some reason the magic sniffers command me to present myself to the king as a po...

I immediately fell in love with this world, like you can tell that the author is just getting started with everything, i want to know more! Also Kaven understands us book obsessed individuals! I didn't find out until after I read the book that she is very popular on Tiktok and I actually already follow her too! She is one of us. The characters were so effortlessly funny, I instantly knew I would love anything Kaven writes!

A centuries long war, an enchanted wood, and a curse.

One of my TOP FAVORITE books now!! Seriously the chemistry between these two characters is off the chart and it really sucked me into the story of them!

"Rosie Graham has a problem. A few, actually. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasn’t told her family and now has terrible writer’s block. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Lina’s spare key while she’s out of town. But Rosie doesn’t know tha...

With over 123K reviews on Amazon, it might give you a hint on how amazing this book might be, right!?

This is surprisingly a historical romance, i saying surprisingly because it honestly felt like a non fiction (Elizabeth Taylor, anyone?). The characters felt SO REAL!

When we think romance, we think swoon-worthy moments - love letters/texts, and surface-level issues that are solved within the matter of a few pages. But this love was nothing near surface-level. There was love and lust, but there was also loss and betrayal. Mistakes and apologies, some that led...

I read (and also attempted to read) 4 books this past week! It turned out that I loved half and didn't like the other half. Weird how that worked! Here they are:

The Grump Girl's Friday (don't recommend)- Sofia Summers

Does It Hurt? (REALLY don't recommend)- H.D.Carlton

When Gracie Met The Grump (LOVED LOVED LOVED)- Mariana Zapata

The Simple Wild (LOVED)- K.A.Tucker

This series is an unforgettable, worldwide bestselling saga of one boy, one dragon, and a world of adventure! Husband shares the romance part with us along with a synopsis of the action. Very fun listen!

I wanted to post a mini episode today because on Thursday an episode with the Husband will be posted! I didn't want to leave you hanging with nothing for Tuesday, so here we are :)

Broken Bonds had great character building and the storyline kept my attention for mostly the whole time through the 3 books I read. But let me warn you, Reverse Harem's are not for the faint of heart. This series is SPICY. Also major cliffhanger at the end of the 3rd book, its killing me not knowing what is going on!

She’s got his back.

Hannah Brooks looks more like a kindergarten teacher than somebody who could kill you with a wine bottle opener. Or a ballpoint pen. Or a dinner napkin. But the truth is, she’s an Executive Protection Agent (aka "bodyguard"), and she just got hired to protect superstar actor Jack Stapleton from his middle-aged, corgi-breeding stalker.

He’s got her heart.

Jack Stapleton’s a household name—captured by paparazzi on beaches the world over, famous for, among other things, rising out of the waves in all manner of clingy boa...

Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business.

And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true. Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made h...

When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn't think it's love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her.

Never ask ab...

Husband joins us again today as we talk about the intense and much talked about book Verity by Colleen Hoover!

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of bestselling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish.

Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity’s notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lo...

MOM's Top 10 Favorite Books

Lady Bryn: Julie L. York

Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby.

Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away—with visions of a small town transformation for Nora, who she’s conv...

When a golden-haired warrior washes up on the shores of her homeland—one of the fearful marauders from the land of the Frozen Sun—Lira helps the wounded man instead of turning him in. After reading his soul, she realizes Reyker is different than his brethren who attack the coasts of Glasnith. He confides in her that he’s been cursed with what his pe...

The most humiliating moment of my life begins with an early morning message from my ex’s notoriously heartless best friend.

Jovie—

In no way does this mean my opinion of you has changed.

I’m reaching out because sometime in the middle of last night you tagged yourself in Jude and Stassi’s engagement photo.

---------------------------------------

Nicholas Arthur Frederick Edward Pembrook, Crowned Prince of Wessco, aka His Royal Hotness, is wickedly charming, devastatingly handsome, and unabashedly arrogant - hard not to be when people are constantly bowing down to you.

Then, one snowy night in Manhattan, the prince meets a dark-haired beauty who doesn't bow down. Instead she throws a pie in his face.

Nicholas wants to find out if she tastes as good as her pie, and this...
