It's a snowstorm, Jen's from Chicago, and we're feeling extra qualified to talk about Ice Planet Barbarians! It's the book, and the series that took the world by storm back in 2015, and we're revisiting the absolute powerhouse it was then, before it launched an entire subgenre of romance and changed the romance landscape. We're also talking about Ruby Dixon's clear skill, her obvious love of the genre, and all the ways she makes us both laugh and sigh.If you have a favorite IPB book and you want to talk about it, come find us (and other romance lovers) on the Fated Mates Discord, which you can access by joining our patreon.

Hey HBs! We're rereleasing our recap of BULL MOON RISING by Ruby Dixon and we couldn't be happier! This is part one of our foray into a new corner of the Dixonverse where magic is outlawed and Conquest Moons disrupt everything. We've got a determined heroine who's undercover to save her life and home and a minotaur hero who cannot catch a break in the run up to the next celestial f*ckfest. A marriage of convenience will obviously solve everything! Bonus Content: Mel's in the doghouse, Sabrina can't get enough of the author's note, "slightly smaller" rings, and so much more!

The brilliant Jayne Ann Krentz, romance trailblazer and royalty, joins us this week to talk about one of her favorite tropes--the shotgun wedding! We're talking all things forced marriage...how it differs from marriage of convenience, how it underscores the inherent conflict in romance, and how it often ends up being more like romantic suspense than one would expect! We also talk a bit about how secret babies (and babies in general) play into this trope. Did Jayne also say something that Sarah had to stop the interview to write down? Of course she did!If you have favorite forced marriage/shotgun weddings, maybe you want to join the Fated Mates patreon?

Pamela loves her job on Risda III – as cook to Lord and Lady va'Rin, she is responsible for creating delicious meals. What better way to show her appreciation for her new life than a Thanksgiving feast? Alien guardsman Toghar has adored Pamela in silence for years now. Is today the day to speak up? Or should he wait until she stops shoving her hand into that dead bird on the counter? Will the holidays bring these two together? (The answer is yes, of course.) This is a short, stand-alone story set in the Risdaverse featuring a human woman, an alien hero who has no idea what Thanksgiving is, and some stuff that probably shouldn't happen in a kitchen, but does anyhow. https://rubydixon.com/ Amazon: https://bit.ly/4llk5P3 Risdaverse: https://bit.ly/3FXfgvf ♥ ♥ ♥ RMR Patreon: https://bit.ly/48uPxqg AR – Patreon: https://bit.ly/47zzd5F BRAND NEW ALEXA RILEY: https://bit.ly/3h0y68D Other Mentions Silver Spoon Single Serve Series by Loni Nichole All is Calm-Ish by Niro Feliciano Unbound by Tarana Burke Hood Feminism by Mikki Kendall ♥ ♥ ♥ RMR Website: https://bit.ly/3ifFIyw Weekly New Release: https://bit.ly/30iDete Follow Read Me Romance on Instagram: https://geni.us/uUVdVeY Join Read Me Romance Headquarters on FB: https://geni.us/IdL7B

Danielle starts the new year out strong with the another entry in the Ice Planet Barbarian series by Ruby Dixon with the 2015 book Barbarian Lover. We're back on the Ice Planet, which probably has a name, and the tribe with the wayward girls is chugging along. Many of the girls are paired off and pregnant, fortunately we're spared the horror of an alien pregnancy as we follow Kira, who's single. Kira's not out of the woods yet as one of the tribes men is determined to mate with her despite not resonating yet, but Kira refuses his advances because she's afraid she'll never resonate because she's barren. And if you think Kira's struggle with her infertility and finding a place in a society that is just all about procreation would make for an interesting story, you're going to hate how this ends. Anyway, Kira also had a translator device implanted in her head by the kidnapper aliens and it starts going off, warning Kira that the kidnappers are back for their wayward cargo. So Kira and her romantic interest (and a few others that don't really matter) set out to another crashed alien spaceship that just so happens to be the ship the brought the barbarians to this ice planet. Remarkably, it's still working and speaks perfect English, and knows enough about humans to perform a surgery on Kira to remove the alien implant. You'd think a ship this useful would be used even once more by a society struggling to survive, but infuriatingly, Kira and the others just kinda forget about it. Anyway, the kidnapper aliens have already found them, so it's up to a fresh out of surgery, and recently laid, Kira to save the day!

We've returned to the land of human men to read Lord of Scoundrels by Loretta Chase. But don't worry, the heroine sh00ts the hero in this book. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of this romance classic, we decided to see if this book holds up all these years later. Spoiler alert: some of the language is predictably frustrating (the 90s was a different time), but overall, this book stands the test of time. We're talking top tier enemies to lovers. Also Discussed: the new addition to Veronica's household, doing a deep dive into the Ruby Dixon lexicon, and “who else died this week.” Up Next: Illicit Illustration by E.L. Koslo SOS Novella: Sap & Spile by Vera Valentine What else we're reading: Tales Beneath the Winter Sky (Anthology) by The Distracted Inklings (Lady Kilroy, Amber Thoma, Amber Paige, Veronica Wynne, Roxie Cohen, Rebekah Sinclair) – available until February 15, 2025 and all proceeds go to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library Howl You Doin' by Jacklyn Hyde What else we're listening to/watching: Deadliest Catch Know Rogan Experience SHOW INFORMATION:  Join the Discord Follow us on Spotify!

In a world of magical artifacts and fantastical beings, a woman determined to save her family joins forces with an unlikely partner in this steamy romantasy by USA Today bestselling author Ruby Dixon. As a Holder's daughter, Aspeth Honori knows the importance of magical artifacts . . . which is why it's a disaster that her father has gambled all theirs away. Now that her family is in danger of losing their hold—and their heads—if anyone finds out the truth, Aspeth decides to do something about it. She'll join the Royal Artifactual Guild and the adventurers who explore ancient underground ruins to retrieve the coveted arcane items. It's a great plan—with one big problem. The guild won't let her train because she's a woman. Aspeth needs a chaperone of some kind. The best way to get around this problem? Marry someone who will let her become an apprentice. Who better than a surly guild member who requires a favor of his own? He's a minotaur (it's fine) who is her teacher (also fine) . . . and he's about to go into rut (which is where it gets tricky). He also has no idea she's a noble (oops), and he'll want nothing to do with her if he discovers her real identity. Now Aspeth just has to pass the guild tests, thwart a fortune hunter, and save her hold—oh, and survive a rut with her monstrous, horned husband, whom she might be falling in love with. It's time to dig deep. Literally.

Jasmine I'm spending a week at my family's beach house. Nothing but sea, sand, and a bit of work to catch up on. Just my usual getaway from the city's hustle and bustle. Or so I thought… until I catch my big, buff, tatted, silver fox neighbor stark naked! Jake O'Malley is twice my age, a goddamn zaddy, and a bada$$ retired Navy SEAL. The stuff of effin wet dreams. Oh, and did I mention he was my dad's best friend growing up? Looks like my summer getaway is about to get scorching hot and dripping wet… Jake Jasmine is the daughter of a man I called my best friend for half my life. She's also the curviest, smartest, funniest, most delicious and tempting woman I've ever met. From the moment I caught her watching me shower through her window, I knew she was mine. I'm a man who claims what's his and never lets go. Now, I gotta convince my girl we're it, and not just the hottest f*ck of our lives. Her father and anyone else who dares disagree be damned. Listen along for a deliciously forbidden dad's best friend quick and dirty romance. With no cheating, no cliffhanger, a guaranteed HEA, and all the summer heat and dripping wetness you can handle!

Today, we're reading an absolute romance classic — one of those books everyone tells you is a must read, and one that neither of us had read before the podcast! We're taking a few minutes at the top to admit our mutual folly, though, because Flowers from the Storm is stunning, and we now feel grown up enough to appreciate it. We talk about Quakers, about dogs and kittens and apes, about men with pirate smiles and vengeance in their heart, about thees and thous, about capitalism and happily ever after and about how internal conflict can sometimes be the most difficult hurdle to overcome. Also, we find an undeniable reason to learn trigonometry. Our next read along, and last of the year, will be Roan Parrish's Rend. Get it at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books and Kobo.
