This Month on No Smut Shaming: We wrap up July and discuss the light hearted and drama free book... Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec. Claire is a twenty-something, single mom that grudgingly helps her best friend sell sex toys while she attempts to make enough money to start her own business to give her foul-mouthed, but extremely loveable (when he's asleep) toddler a better life. When Carter, the one-night-stand from her past that changed her life forever, shows up in her hometown bar without any recollection of her besides her unique chocolate scent, Claire will make it a point that he remembers her this time. With Carter's shock at suddenly finding out he has a four-year-old son and Claire's panic that her stretch marks and slim to none bedroom experience will send the man of her dreams heading for the hills, the pair will do whatever they can to get their happily ever after.

We decided to change it up a bit and review a non-smut book series. With us both living in Michigan it was pretty cool to read a book based here and be able to understand the small town vibe with all the crazy weather seasons. There is a love story so the romance isn't completely gone, but we mostly loved the relationships between the main character Bay and her cousins, Clove and Thistle. Their moms are crazy and wild, the side characters keep the plot lines interesting, and there are laugh out loud moments often. Give a try, you won't be disappointed.

What do you get when you take an arrogant, entitled, sexy race car driver with enough baggage to fill a plane and the girl next door who's life revolves around making orphaned kids lives better but also has enough baggage to fill a plane? The answer would be A: a whole ton of baggage B: a bunch of hot steamy sex C: a lot of drama D: A love so big its made into 4 books AND a tv series on Passionflix. We loved the tv series and the books (minus book 4) and hope you are able to check them out. We also talk about Passioncon. Think comic con but with a bunch of sexy actors/actresses that have come together to make the steamiest books come to life. We are putting it out into the universe that we are definitely going next year. Get Driven Now Want Kindle Unlimited? Get Audible and 2 free books!

Holidays are for friends and family so we have solicited the help of Hannah and Katie: hosts of One Kiss Means Forever podcast for this episode. We're recapping Double Holiday, which means we have twice the fun! This movie stars Carly Pope as Rebecca Hoffman and Kristoffer Polaha as Chris Coulter. Rebecca and Chris are vying for the same VP position and are rivals, until they must work together to plan the perfect company Christmas party. Great news for Chris who loves Christmas, bad news for Rebecca who's Jewish and has little experience with the holiday. In this episode we realize that Hannah is the Jewish MacGyver and gives us all the Hanukkah secrets like using birthday candles in the menorah and the unsung holiday hero- jelly donuts. While Katie regales us with all things Christmas, including the potential names for her Christmas tree: either Spruce Willis or Brendan Fraser Fir. We also explain how the dewy glow of our heroine might be the oil heavy Hanukkah food and heavily push Passionflix subscriptions even though they are not a sponsor. So pull out your menorahs and Christmas trees and join double the hosts for this Double Holiday.

Author Rachel Van Dyken's series, "The Elite" has been described as "Gossip girl meets Godfather". Sound interesting? Rachel may be a Romance Novel writer, but she's also a boundary pusher in the genre, launching young adult romance, "mafia romance", and more niche blends of storytelling. Tosca Musk (yes, Elon Musk's sister) is even working with Rachel on a live action version of "The Matchmakers" for Passionflix, the Netflix of romance. We got to her about how she gets into the writing groove, fearlessly toggling projects to stay energized, and her transition from student councelor to #1 NYT, WSJ, and USA Today bestseller.
