Three Weeks With Lady X by Eloisa James | Episode 144

A motorcycle romance murder mystery!Most of you know that we struggle with motorcycle romance on the whole. So, when I saw that Deveny Perry was writing a small-town romance with a former MC that disbanded, I did a little *squee*! Maybe this would be a different kind of MC that didn&apos;t degrade women, felt like a real family and made us swoon in the process. It was! The Clifton Forge series is has cemented itself as our favorite MC romance novels.WHERE TO FIND US:► Email:  swreadromance@gmail.com ► Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/swreadrom► Goodreads:  https://www.goodreads.com/swreadrom► Instagram:  http://www.instagram.com/swreadrom► Twitter:  https://twitter.com/swreadrom► FB Group:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/swreadrom.theswoonzone/► Juliette’s Books: https://www.juliettecross.com/   ► Etsy Store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/swreadrom/► Discord: https://discord.gg/ptJr3yvFhW► Podcast:  http://www.buzzsprout.com/230454Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/swreadrom)

Lore Olympus V1 by Rachel Smythe | Episode 141

What happens when an Irish mobster unknowingly kidnaps a stick of dynamite in a bubbly, yoga-loving, pink-wearing WOMAN? Sparks, fireworks, explosions! Seriously, I hate that I’m hyping this book so much because I know how it feels to have high expectations and be let down, but this book ? Sloane is almost too hot to handle for Declan but somehow they are exactly what each other needs. The humor is high, the banter is non-stop, one of my favorite scenes is so over the top but it just works. READ IT!

Niece and aunt duo, Jessen Judice and (author) Juliette Cross, bond over their shared love of romance novels, and want to include fellow romance enthusiasts in on the conversation. We started this podcast as a big middle finger to the stigma associated with reading and loving romance novels.

Bring that *ish on!This one goes out to all the fangirls! Life's better with a little HEA. Links:Apple PodcastGoogle PodcastClosed Facebook GroupTwitterInstagramPatreon
