Thank you for listening!

Y'all it's time for another round-up of all things romance in this month's RAAG on Romance. Bridget talks about the books that she's been reading (thank you to all publishers for the copies!), Shani and Bridget talk about what TV they have been binging, and generally laugh and play their way through the episode. 

Special Thank You to Anna Lowe for sponsoring today's episode. Anna Lowe is the author of Tempting the Sheriff, a steamy, suspenseful paranormal romance featuring a female, fox shifter as Robin Hood and a dragon/knight as the new sheriff of Nottingham. The Sherwood Forest Shifters series combines the action-packed romance of Outlander with the humor of The Princess Bride for a fresh new twist on a classic, with brave knights, cunning bandits, fire-breathing dragons, and forbidden lovers.

Shows and Books we talk about in this month's RAAG on Romance

• Gen V on Amazon Prime - Highly recommend, but trigger warning - LOTS of violence, gratuitous and frankly weird sex, and trauma of ALL kinds throughout. 
• Business Proposal - Korean Drama - The main character pretends to be someone else and ends up with a billionaire, who she works for! Shani rewatched it and still loves it
• My Fault or Mia Culpa - Spanish romance movie, based on a Wattpad turned trilogy.  Bridget watched a liked it! Had a new step-siblings fall-in-love taboo element. 
• Fourth Wing and Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros - The hype is worth it. This series is so good. Disclaimer - it is not finished. At least one more book coming next year. I burned right through books 1 and 2. 
• If You’ll Have Me by Eunnie -a sapphic graphic novel - legitimately cried a little at the end with how sweet and heartwarming it is. Fans of Heartstopper jump on this.
• The Ladies Rewrite the Rules by Suzanne Allain - author of Mr. Malcolm’s List. - list of eligible rich women widows etc turn the tables and use it for their benefit.  Comes out January 9th, 2024
• Fire in the Flesh by Jennifer L Armentrout – if you missed our interview, make sure you check it out! Plus, we didn’t even talk about her series Blood and Ash being optioned by Amazon Studios.  I burned right through it.

We had an awesome guest host this week for a special episode! Danielle Bezalel is the host of the Sex Ed with DB podcast, an queer and Biopoc centered sex education podcast that is as entertaining as it is informative. 

We read Happenstance, a reverse harem, why choose, romance from Tessa Bailey. To be honest, we didn't talk about the book all that much! Danielle was a romance virgin and we ended up talking all about romance, sex in books, sex in media, learning through media, why she choose to focus on sexual education and health after living in Israel for a year, and so much more. 

This is one of my favorite conversations, and I was so happy to have Danielle on the podcast. 

You can grab a copy of Happenstance here. It is a rom-com why choose, low on the angst, high on the heat, and of course, lots of dirty talking Tessa Bailey style. 

Check out Sex with DB Podcast here. Follow on Instagram and Tiktok!

Y. M. Nelson and Nerdy Romantics guests Marcie, Staci, Pam, Dana, and Mary recommend romance reads with plus-sized main characters as the last installment of the “Who Gets An HEA?” miniseries. The mini-series showcases romances with marginalized heroes and heroines, and in episode 24, we feature romance novels by Amy Lea, Olivia Dade, Denise Williams, Kendra Sumter, and Kat Baxter.

Because all of us personally connect to this representation, we also talked about the nomenclature of fat. How do you talk about someone’s weight or body size with positivity and non-judgement? Dana also addressed the frustration with finding books with good fat representation. Do you have recommendations or authors you like who have body positive plus-sized main characters? Contact host@nerdyromanticspodcast.com We’d love to feature these books!

Bridget and Lynn fangirled over rom-coms of the past, present, and future. And discussed how Lynn realized when she added the comedy in her romance, that’s when it all clicked.

They talked about what makes the classics great, moving from writing YA to adult romance, the best parts of fictional (and real) relationships, and when the right time is to start sexing it up in a story. And how being seen by your partner can be the best bit! Lynn and Bridget had the best time chatting, and you’re definitely gonna wanna give this one a listen!
