Amanda Bouchet | Authors at a Glance

A CRAZY hot male lead...and we mean that literally. We talk hilariously bad covers, rational heroines (thank god), unsexy dog tags, cute family detective agencies, and a painful slowburn. The iconic Ilona Andrews flexes her chops in writing a meet cute that somehow involves kidnapping and torture (lowkey though, lowkey), while still giving us a great romance. This urban fantasy includes hot bad boy villains and magical phantom touches - what’s not to love? ***Get your copy here: Burn for Me by Ilona AndrewsGet 30 days free on Kindle Unlimited just for our listeners! Or listen on Audible like Shani and get up to two free ebooks when you try Audible Premium Plus. ***Leave us a rating and review on Itunes***A lot of additional listening on Patreon!Welcome to Romance at a Glance, a podcast that uses romance novels to dive into candid conversations about life, relationship dynamics, and sexual desires. As hosts Bridget and Shani review books and interview some of romance's biggest authors, they explore the breadth of the genre, openly embracing the sex, diverse couplings, and taboo to create a safe space for listeners to be exposed to different lifestyles, fantasies, and to pique their naughty curiosity.Expect 100% honest reviews, spontaneous singing, life lessons, indecent anecdotes, and bawdy humor.Check out www.romanceataglance.comChat with us on Instagram at instagram.com/romanceataglanceSupport us on Patreon at patreon.com/romanceataglance
