The Novel:My December DarlingThe Author:Lauren AsherThe Guest:Torry, host of Ready to be Romanced and Ready to be PettyThe Synopsis:CatalinaPlaying the part of my sister's maid of honor is easy even if she's marrying my ex. But playing nice with the best man? An impossible task given our history. Sure, Luke Darling may be suspiciously kind, incredibly handsome, and stubborn to a fault, but regardless of how hard he tries to make me see otherwise, I'm not interested. It's on me to remind him that he's my ex-boyfriend's best friend. And the one I'm secretly starting to wish I met first.LukeMy job as the best man is a simple one, except for one minor issue. I've spent so much time avoiding my best friend's ex that I didn't consider what could happen if I started craving Catalina Martinez's company instead. She is only in Lake Wisteria for the winter wedding, but her January departure date won't stop me from pursuing her. Getting her to date me would be nothing short of a Christmas miracle, but I'm determined to make her mine. ‘Tis the season to fall in love…even if I'm the only one taking the risk.Show Notes:- The 7th annual 12 Days of Boobsmas- From romance noobie to romance podcaster- Romance novels don't need to be hidden- Don't forget to shop your local romance bookstore this holiday season (updated June 2024)- Introducing today's book pick, My December Darling (00:12:45)- Our new favorite micro-trope...

Livro muito divertido e engraçado, com alguns momentos picantes. Ele é estilo Prova de Fogo, porém sem a religião. Pelo menos eu gostei muito e foi uma recomendação de uma amiga com ótimo gosto para romances não clichês.

Tune in as Torry (Ready to Be Petty) rejoins Arthur for a review and recap of The Bromance Book Club, the 2019 second chance romance novel by Lyssa Kay Adams that explores what happens when a guy embarks on a plan to save his collapsing marriage by joining a club full of men who read romance books to educate themselves on love, women, and healthy masculinity. All the sexism that our society has aimed at the pumpkin spice latte, the pleasure of meeting side characters in a romance book who you realize will star in their own standalone sequels, and the many times when Arthur and Torry push for these characters (not only Gavin and Thea, but Liv as well) to seek therapy comprise a few of the topics that get discussed. TW: sexual content, past child neglect, bullying for a speech impediment, past infidelity, vomiting, profanity, and alcohol Spoilers start at 20:15 Show notes: • Lyssa Kay Adams's interview with The Everyday Magazine: https://theeverydaymagazine.co.uk/fictionandpoetry/talking-to-lyssa-kay-adams Good Word: • Torry: The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent • Arthur: GrayStillPlays's Happy Wheels playthroughs (Arthur has been watching them through the Tiktok account @gspfanpage) Reach out at email2centscritic@yahoo.com if you want to recommend things to watch and read, share anecdotes, or just say hello!

Summary: Happy Valentine's Day, friends! While neither Holly nor Devin are superfans of this holiday, they wanted to take some time to highlight marriage with two books this week. Oddly enough, Holly's thriller wheelhouse is chockablock full of married couples on the rocks, but Devin's romance genre almost never centers on a couple that have already found their happily ever after. All told, though, they find the relationship dynamics of a marriage as great drivers of plot and character across genres.    Topics Discussed: The Heart (3:09): Devin discussed The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams, a novel that turns most romance novels on its head by centering on a man working to save his marriage via an unusual book club. Gavin Scott is Nashville Legends second baseman who thinks he has it all - a loving wife, twin daughters, and a career he loves. When Thea admits that their intimate relationship has never satisfied her, he's left desperate and on the path to divorce. To save it, he ends up in a circle of men who read romance novels to give them advice on how to navigate their relationships with their wives. Devin's key takeaways were:  This is the first novel focused on men reading romance stories that Devin has been able to find, and the new perspective on the genre was refreshing and invigorating. She'd rather men not have to read romance novels to act as “manuals” for their own love lives, but hey, she'll take it. Gavin's wife Thea carries trauma that adds feasibility to the storyline. Her sister, however, was so anti-Gavin and pro-divorce that at times it was off-putting and unnatural.  Adams had a feminist focus throughout the book and clearly strove to drive messages home about intimacy, vulnerability, and relationships. It was preachy at times but ultimately the execution on the rest of the novel was a success.  The Dagger (17:44): Holly discussed The Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey, a sci-fi novel following Evelyn Caldwell, a scientist who has discovered how to clone human adults. Her recent awards and professional success is marred when she discovers that her soon-to-be ex-husband has been cheating on her… with a clone of herself named Martine. As Evelyn works to process these recent life changes and come to terms with everything, she gets a call one day from a panicked Martine; it turns out Nathan is dead and the two women must come together to clean up the mess and hide the crime. Holly's key takeaways were:  With a fairly unusual premise, this novel dives deeply into key themes and commentary of our society, principally gender norms for women and women in marriage. Gailey explores what it means to be a woman through Evelyn and her clone, a woman re-programmed to be more docile and subservient than Evelyn is naturally.  Through the science of cloning, the reader also confronts ideas and challenges around identity - what makes you, you? What role does biology vs. experience play in making us who we are, and how much of a choice do we have?  Be mindful if you are sensitive to gore, and make sure you listen through the very end of our episode for a spoiler-filled tidbit from Holly that blew Devin's mind!  Hot On the Shelf (35:52): Devin: Lunar Love by Lauren Kung Jessen Holly: Elsewhere by Alexis Schaitkin What's Making Our Hearts Race (38:05): Devin: Glass Onion on Netflix Holly: Fleischman is in Trouble on Hulu    Instagram: @heartsanddaggerspod Website: www.heartsanddaggerspod.com   If you like what you hear, please tell your friends and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so that we can find our perfect audience.

Willkommen bei einer ganz besonderen Episode von bücherreich, einem Podcast größtenteils über Bücher! Ich blicke zurück auf mein Lesejahr 2022 mit Tops und Flops, Statistiken, meinen Lesevorsätzen für 2023 und einer Auswahl an Versprechern des Jahres ganz zum Schluss der Episode. Viel Spaß! Statistiken: Die beliebteste Episode dieses Jahr war „Mein Lesejahr 2021“ mit 465 Downloads, gefolgt von „Mein Lesemonat Dezember 2021“ (367 Downloads) und „Mein Lesemonat Februar 2022“ (359). Insgesamt wurden meine Folgen 75.590 Mal angehört (2021: 61.195; also sind 14.395 Downloads (1.200/Monat) 2022 hinzugekommen). Das umfasst auch alle „alten“ Episoden und ist echt der Hammer für mich. Danke für's fleißige (nachträgliche) Hören! 101 Bücher mit insgesamt 44.818 Seiten habe ich im Lesejahr 2022 gelesen. Im Schnitt sind das 444 (!) Seiten pro Buch, 8,4 Bücher pro Monat und 123 Seiten pro Tag. Ich konnte mich im Vergleich zum Vorjahr sowohl von der Gesamtzahl der gelesenen Bücher steigern, als auch an deren Seitenzahl - ich habe nämlich viele sehr lange Bücher in Angriff genommen. Im Vergleich zu 2021 sind es 3 Bücher und 4.368 Seiten mehr und ist damit auf dem Niveau von 2020, was ein super gutes Lesejahr für mich war. Bin also happy! Noch ein paar mehr Details: Die Bücher teilen sich auf auf 47 Hörbücher (46,5 %; Vorjahr: 40 / 40,8 %), 11 E-Books (10,9 %; Vorjahr: 3 / 3,1 %) und 43 „klassische“ Bücher (42,6 %; Vorjahr: 55/ 56,1 %). 38 Bücher/Hörbücher (37,6 %; Vorjahr: 44/ 45 %) im Jahr 2022 waren Rezensionsexemplare, und sage und schreibe 34 Bücher/Hörbücher (33,7 %) habe ich in Leserunden gelesen. Fremdsprachig waren leider nur 6 der gelesenen Bücher/Hörbücher, was 6 % ausmacht. 54 % meiner gelesenen Titel waren von Autorinnen, 41 % von Autoren und 5 % gemischt. 43 % waren frisch 2022 erschienen, 9 % aus dem Jahr 2021 und 7 % aus dem Jahr 2012. Die lesereichsten Monate nach Anzahl waren mit je 11 gelesenen Titeln der März und der Mai 2022, mit 6 beendeten Büchern war der April der am wenigsten lesereichste Monat. Von der gelesenen Seitenzahl her waren der Juli (4.472), der März (4.328) und der Mai (4.274) Vorreiter. Erreichen meiner Lese-Ziele 2022: Meine SuB-Abbau-Ziele habe ich nicht nur nicht erreicht, sondern auch draufgelegt. Meine Ziele lauteten: Von 103 auf 85 ungehörte Hörbücher runterkommen. Max. fünf ungelesene Bücher auf dem SuB haben. Meine SuB-Höhen lagen am 31.12.2021 bei 20 Büchern, 103 Hörbüchern und 105 eBooks (insg.: 228). Am 31.12.2022 liegen sie bei 102 Büchern, 100 Hörbüchern und 97 eBooks (299). Das lag daran, dass ich Licht am Ende des Bücher-SuB-Tunnels gesehen habe und hemmungslos Farbschnitt-Ausgaben gekauft habe. Außerdem habe ich mich wie geplant bei den Bücherhallen (Bibliothek in Hamburg) angemeldet und daraufhin meinen Hörbuch-SuB ebenfalls sträflich vernachlässigt.  Somit habe ich 82 (!) Bücher hinzubekommen, nur 3 Hörbücher abgebaut und bei den eBooks ebenfalls abgebaut, und zwar 8.  Von den „12 Büchern für 2022“ habe ich alle gelesen oder gehört. Beim Projekt „Autor(innen) lesen“ habe ich zwei von drei geplanten AutorInnen geschafft: Sowohl bei Jay Kristoff als auch bei Fredrik Backman bin ich nun völlig up to date, was ihre (deutschen) Veröffentlichungen anbelangt. Und das hat richtig Spaß gemacht! Von den Reihen, die ich 2022 beenden/weiterlesen möchte, habe ich mir den Großteil auf Wiedervorlage für 2023 gesetzt. Bis auf Cassandra Clares „City of...“-Reihe bin ich nirgendwo großartig vorangekommen. Das wiederum lag sicher großteils an der Leserunde dazu, die sich auch auf weitere Buchreihen innerhalb dieses Schattenjäger-Universums ausgeweitet hat. Die Bücher selbst fand ich leider nicht so toll, auch wenn mich der Humor positiv überrascht hat.  Die Leserunden haben alle sehr gut geklappt - so gut, dass sie mir mittlerweile in Fleisch und Blut übergegangen sind und ich sie mir nicht als explizites Lesevorhaben für 2023 setzen werde. Meine Lesevorsätze 2023: Folgende Ziele setze ich mir für 2023: SuB-Abbau: Mit dem hohen Bücher-SuB komme ich nicht gut zurecht (und habe auch nicht genug Platz im Regal!). Leider sind auch schon wieder etliche Titel vorbestellt, und auch ein monatliches Farbschnitt-Abo ist aktuell aktiv. Da hilft nur: Ganz viel weglesen und darüber hinaus nicht viel Neues kaufen. Bei den Büchern möchte ich bis Ende des Jahres auf max. 75 ungelesene Bücher kommen. Für die Hörbücher bleibe ich bei meinem letztjährigen Ziel, auf 85 ungehörte Hörbücher zu reduzieren. SuB-Senioren: Ich habe fünf haptische Bücher auf dem SuB, die ich seit (gefühlt) zehn Jahren mit mir herumschleppe. Diese Bücher möchte ich 2023 lesen - oder aussortieren. Am liebsten schon im ersten Halbjahr 2023, aber man muss ja nicht über-ambitioniert sein... Das sind: „The lies of Locke Lamora“ von Scott Lynch „Operation Red Sparrow“ von Jason Matthews „Die Monster von Templeton“ von Lauren Groff „Die Stunde, in der ich zu glauben begann“ von Wally Lamb „Die Zwillinge“ von Tessa deLoo Fortführung Projekt „Autor(innen) lesen“:  Das Projekt hat mir super viel Spaß gemacht! Dieses Jahr möchte ich die Autorin, die 2022 leider hinten über gefallen ist, nun wirklich lesen: Anne Freytag. Da dieses Projekt ein wenig dem SuB-Abbau entgegenwirkt (ich besitze nur ihr neuestes Buch), werde ich es für 2023 bei einer Autorin belassen, und dann 2024 neu schauen, ob ich mich mal an z.B. Brandon Sanderson, Riley Sager oder Anabelle Stehl heranwage. Reihen, die ich 2023 beenden/weiterlesen möchte:  „Die sieben Schwestern“ von Lucinda Riley, letzter Band „Outlander“ von Diana Gabaldon, ab Band 8 „Harry Hole“ von Jo Nesbo, ab Band 1 (Band 3 bereits gelesen) „The Diviners“ von Libba Bray, ab Band 2 „David Hunter“ von Simon Beckett, ab Band 2 „The secret book club“ von Lyssa Kay Adams, ab Band 1 „The Inheritance Games“ von Jennifer Lynn Barnes, ab Band 1 „Zeitenzauber“ von Eva Völler, ab Band 1 „The Loop“ von Ben Oliver, ab Band 1 „Wayfarers“ von Becky Chambers, ab Band 1 „Red Rising“ von Pierce Brown, ab Band 1 „The Wolves of Mercy Falls“ von Maggie Stiefvater, ab Band 1 Bei den privaten SuB-Abbau-Challenges, die ich im Lesegarten mitbetreue, werde ich 2023 bei der Jahreschallenge mitmachen (die betrifft dieses Jahr Länder/Regionen; für mich als Fantasyleserin schon schwierig genug). Bei den Monatschallenges werde ich eher aussetzen, um neben Leserunden, Jahreschallenge, Reziexemplaren und meinen Lesezielen 2023 flexibel genug zu bleiben, auch ein Stück weit nach Lust und Laune zu lesen. Es macht mir weiterhin wahnsinnig Spaß, zusammen in Teams zu lesen und sich auszutauschen - wer also Lust hat, sich dem Forum anzuschließen, ist herzlich willkommen! „12 für 2023“: Vorletztes Jahr habe ich euch zum ersten Mal auswählen lassen, welche Bücher von meinen SuBs (=Stapel ungelesener Bücher/Hörbücher/eBooks)  ich lesen soll. Für 2021 hatte ich euch 21 Titel auswählen lassen, und davon leider 8 doch nicht geschafft zu lesen. 2022 wollte ich nicht mehr so viele Titel auf der Liste haben und hatte mir 12 Titel auswählen lassen. Diese habe ich alle geschafft zu lesen, und daher sind dies nun die 12 Titel, die ihr mir für 2023 ausgesucht habt: „Ein fast perfekter Liebesroman“ von Lyssa Kay Adams „Die magische Gondel“ von Eva Völler „Achtsam morden am Rande der Welt“ von Karsten Dusse „Liebes Kind“ von Romy Hausmann „Red Rising“ von Pierce Brown „Das Dschungelbuch“ von Rudyard Kipling „The Loop“ von Ben Oliver „Der lange Weg zu einem kleinen zornigen Planeten“ von Becky Chambers „The Inheritance Games“ von Jennifer Lynn Barnes „Das Hexenmädchen (Kommissar Nils Trojan, #4)“ von Max Bentow „American Gods“ von Neil Gaiman „Nach dem Sommer (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1)“ von Maggie Stiefvater Flops 2022: „Die hellen Tage“ von Zsuzsa Bánk „Rabbits“ von Terry Miles* Die „Maze Runner“-Reihe von James Dashner „Die vielen Leben des Harry August“ von Claire North „#LondonWhisper - Als Zofe ist man selten online“ von Aniela Ley* „Vier Frauen und ein See“ von Viola Shipman* „Glaube mir“ von Alice Feeney* Tops 2022: Alles von Jay Kristoff, z.B. „Das Reich der Vampire“, die „Aurora“-Trilogie, die „Der Lotuskrieg“- oder die „Das Babel-Projekt“-Reihe „Malibu Rising“ von Taylor Jenkins Reid „The Witch Queen - Entfesselte Magie“ von Verena Bachmann „Kein Sommer ohne dich“ von Emily Henry* „Früher wird alles besser“ von Vanessa Mansini „Home - Haus der bösen Schatten“ von Riley Sager* „Der Anschlag“ von Stephen King „Der Report der Magd“ von Margaret Atwood „Der Gesang der Flusskrebse“ von Delia Owens Sehnlichst erwartete Neuerscheinungen 2023: Auf diese Bücher freue ich mich besonders im Lesejahr 2023, sodass sie jetzt schon auf meiner Rezi-Liste gelandet sind. Ich hoffe, ich erhalte diese Bücher als Rezi-Exemplare!

Two weeks ago I didn't think I'd even have an august wrap-up but somehow I managed to read five books in the second half of the month and what a wrap up we have! Every Summer After by Carley Fortune was the perfect end of summer read that I finished in under 24-hours, while Jenny Bayliss' latest book Meet Me Under the Mistletoe, that releases September 27th started getting me in the holiday spirit early. Denise Williams has a cute trilogy of flight-inspired novellas that got me out of my reading slump and it was Lyssa Kay Adams with the third book in her Bromance Book Club series that left me in fits of laughter. Finally, Angie Hockman had a very Ohio-centric new book Dream On that put a fun twist on what happens when you meet your dream man.

The time has finally arrived...Kearsten doesn't like a book Tatyana loves! This has happened many times in reverse and that is why the banter part of the podcast works so well, but it is a rare rare feat that Kearsten does not enjoy a book that Tatyana loves. So, grab the popcorn and buckle up for this roller coaster, while we dive into the world of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. This book took the world by storm and since has had several special editions, hundreds of merch made from it, and even the occasional tattoo, and we had such a blast dissecting this book. This episode contains spoilers from: The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by VE Schwab, Crazy Stupid Bromance by Lyssa Kay Adams, and Supernatural TV show.

Many people may assume that romance novels are exclusively for women. But one study found 18% of romance readers are men. "The Bromance Book Club" author Lyssa Kay Adams joins us along with Jason Rogers, who started his own real-life bromance book club. And, for the first time, workers at an Amazon warehouse have voted to unionize. The historic election was on Staten Island in New York. Stephan Bisaha, wealth and poverty reporter for Gulf States Newsroom, joins us.

Resenha, sinopse e as minhas impressões sobre o livro dessa semana! A primeira parte é sem spoiler, pode ouvir sem medo que eu aviso com antecedência!

"The Bromance Book Club" is a fun, funny, and sexy novel about a group of men who help their friend save his marriage with the help of tropes from the saucy romances they read together. It has absolutely no connection whatsoever with either the 1984 animated film The Transformers: The Movie or the more recent live action Michael Bay Transformers movies, so while some light discussion of those lovable robots in disguise is inevitable, please don't expect TOO much Transformers talk in this episode.

Sinopse: O que acontece no clube do livro fica no clube do livro. Eleito pela Amazon o melhor romance de 2019. “Lyssa Kay Adams criou uma das comédias românticas mais inovadoras e criativas do ano.” – Entertainment Weekly A primeira regra do clube do livro é: não fale sobre o clube do livro Gavin Scott é um astro do beisebol, devotado ao esporte. No auge de sua carreira, ele descobre um segredo humilhante: a esposa, Thea, sempre fingiu ter prazer na cama. Magoado, Gavin para de falar com ela e acaba piorando o relacionamento, que já vinha se deteriorando. Quando Thea pede o divórcio, ele percebe que o orgulho e o medo podem fazê-lo perder tudo. Bem-vindos ao Clube do Livro dos Homens Desesperado, Gavin encontra ajuda onde menos espera: um clube secreto de romances, composto por alguns dos seus colegas de time. Para salvar seu casamento, eles recorrem à leitura de uma sensual trama de época, Cortejando a condessa. Só que vai ser preciso muito mais do que palavras floreadas e gestos grandiosos para que Gavin recupere a confiança da esposa.

Jen and Jackie have a quick discussion on some twitter drama that went down in January involving a male reader trying to break into the romance sphere. As with all twitter drama, his tweet got blown way out of proportion, and romancelandia flocked to the defense of romance heroes everywhere...thereby effectively gatekeeping a sphere that claims to be one of the most welcoming genres out there. Let's get into it.Tweet in question:no-one:romance books: this man is so big. he is just so huge. he towers over me. all i can think about is how big he is. his arms are big. but i have to contain this feeling. we work together! yet my mind is imagining a life with mr big in all his enormousness. he is so... big.7:06 PM · Jan 25, 2022· 2,334 Retweets 3,281 Quote Tweets 21.1K LikesWhat do you guys think? Have you experienced any gatekeeping in romancelandia? Have you come across people make fun of romance? What are your reactions to this situation?

On This episode of a Quick Shot of Romance we are reviewing Undercover Bromance by Lyssa Kay Adams.

Valentine's Day vibes on this week's podcast, with Tim Xayasomloth, bookseller at Changing Hands Bookstore.  Tim has become known as "The Romance Guy" at the store ever since he challenged himself to read genres outside his fantasy and science fiction favorites, and found he loved the contemporary romance! Comparing a romance novel to a tasty margarita that “goes down easy,” Tim explains to Olivia why he believes men can benefit from reading romance to understand how to be a better guy and better partner. Tim talks about the book that started him off: “The Bromance Book Club” by Lyssa Kay Adams, and why some of the romance tropes like enemies to lovers are so enjoyable. Tim also recommends “The Right Swipe” by Alisha Rai, “The Kiss Quotient” by Helen Hoang, and Rachel Lynn Solomon's “The Ex Talk.”   This podcast episode is dedicated to Elizabeth Stewart, Margaret's sister, who shared her love for books not only with her little sister, but through her career as a librarian.

Content Warning: discussions of body size and acceptance, toxic doctor-patient relationships, diet culture, disordered eating, and disability representation. Language usage Welcome back glittery romance nerds. It's time for a serious discussion about body representation in romancelandia..buckle in because this one gets a bit rambly. In this episode, we get down into the nitty gritty as we talk about all types of bodies, not just in relation to size, but also disability. Is romance truly the most inclusive genre out there? Or does it still fall behind other genres out there? Also be warned...we had a bad day and swear a lot in this one. Don't forget, you can always email us at Ragingromantics@gmail.com!

Found family, partners, true-blue friends: it's all about the groups of people who claim us, warm our hearts, and have our backs no matter what, who help us feel that we belong.https://www.confessionsofaclosetromantic.comRemember the TV show Queer as Folk? It originated in the UK, and there was a US version too. Its group of friends fits this trope so well. My high school crush/date came out to me on prom night so I felt a bit like Daphne in this clip: happy and proud for him, but a bit disappointed, too. The TV show Friends is all about this trope, too, of course. My BFF loves motorcycle club romances, which embody this trope as well. All the Tropes on band of brothers is great, and tvtropes.org also explores a band of brothers trope off-shoot called True Companions.Four Weddings and a Funeral is still charming and touching, with one of the best “we belong together” found-family examples in any rom-com.Bromance Book Club is the first book in the Bromance Book Club series by Lyssa Kay Adams. Its band of brothers is romance gold—needless to say, Netflix snapped up the rights so the story will be coming to a tiny screen near you sometime soon. Daniel is a steady, wise and affectionate presence in the Loveless Brothers series by Roxie Noir, and his story, Best Fake Fiancé is one of my favorites, along with Levi’s and Eli's stories.Jo Beverley’s Malloren series is one of my top favorite romance series ever. Devilish, the oldest Malloren brother Lord Rothgar's story, is one romance I can happily read over and over.Tessa Dare’s Spindle Cove series centers on an English village in the Regency era with blue stockings and shy, spirited women who don't quite fit in as its residents, along with the group of aristocratic men who love them. They're full of wit and whimsy, the perfect place to start reading historical romance.The Beautiful series by writing duo Christina Lauren is quite a ride: spicy hot and kinky (unlike their more recent books) with "naughty" tropes that ratchet up the fantasy.I plan to explore this fantastic series in an upcoming episode, but for now, let me say that Chloe Liese's Bergman brothers series has this trope in spades and it's another, new top favorite romance series.

Suspend your assumptions about rare books - Rebecca Romney shares how rare book collection can be for everyone, and is a critical component of preserving romance genre history. Work by marginalized people has frequently been considered unimportant or devalued in the rare book world - learn how Rebecca's work (part detective, part scholar, part marketer) is important not just for romance scholars, but for all of us, and how we all have a role to play.Rebecca Romney is a rare books specialist who has been working on a catalogue surveying the history of popular romance since 2016, covering first editions of major works in the genre from the 18th century to the year 2000.

If you want something different in life, change it—whether it's your career or the patriarchy. Or if you're our guest, author Lyssa Kay Adams, both. The last couple of years were pretty major for Lyssa. She pitched a story on Twitter as a relatively unknown author, was signed with an agent within two days, received a three-book deal with a publisher, and–oh, yeah–actually wrote the first novel, "The Bromance Book Club." (Not to mention her second novel, "Undercover Bromance," which comes out March 10.) So, yeah—she's been pretty busy. Lyssa isn't afraid of change. She left her career as a journalist to become published romance novelist, and the risk paid off. Her novel has received numerous accolades and was listed No. 1 on Amazon's "Best Romances of 2019." But how does one navigate so much change in so little time? This episode, we sit down with Lyssa to discuss her latest novel, the creative process, dealing with major life changes, feminism in the romance genre, and—of course—her dog. Mentioned in this episode: - "The Bromance Book Club" by Lyssa Kay Adams - "Undercover Bromance" by Lyssa Kay Adams - Amazon: Best Romances of 2019 - Glamour: In These Books, Happily Ever After Is Just the Beginning
