Hey pals! Today, we’re swooning over IT HAPPENED ONE SUMMER by Tessa Bailey. Piper Bellinger and Brendan Taggart are the ultimate grumpy/sunshine power couple in this swoony summer romance that takes us to the cutest fishing village in the Pacific Northwest. Brendan is a bearded crab fisher with a hard-on for the sea and Piper is a woman with great hair, a heart of gold, and, frankly, incredibly sucky parents. With a charming cast of side characters, this book sailed us toward a cozy, sexy HEA filled with plenty of banter and dirty talk. Enjoy this wonderful listener suggestion!
A note: we give a small flag for gender essentialist language around 6:30
Brazen banter: How to never forget people's birthdays! How to channel your frustration with a TV show plotline into a New York Times bestseller!

Hey pals! Today, we’re hissing, purring, and growling about DARK LOVER by J.R. Ward. This listener suggestion is the first book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series and, honestly, while we probably would have never picked it ourselves we actually loved it. Wrath (yes, that's pronounced how you think it is) is the king of the vampires/angsty man trying to turn down his destiny. Until Beth shows up, turns into a vampire, and turns his word upside down. Vampire god makes an appearance, there's a cat, and there are sweet fight scenes. And yes, Alison will be reading the rest of the series.
A note: this book has a ton of trigger warnings. We talk about them at 5:10.
Brazen banter: Hit and runs! Alison's wildly inconsistent standards for men! What's your weird vampire name?

Hey pals! Today, we’re swooning over UNMASKED BY THE MARQUESS by Cat Sebastian. Alistair, Marquess of Pembroke is a old timey bisexual dude with a stick up his butt and Robin (formerly known as Robert Selby and Charity Church) is the nonbinary chaos agent ready to shake up his world one scam at a time. We're so excited to celebrate Pride Month by showing queer people in all times, and we hope you enjoy this semi-bonkers of a romance with many surprise cat elements.

Hey pals! Today, we’re raving over HOW TO FIND A PRINCESS by Alyssa Cole. Makeda is a hardworking gal/people-pleaser trying to avoid her alleged secret royal past and Bez is chaos embodied who's trying to avenge her grandmother's honor. This book is hilarious and sexy as hell and it takes place on a boat! Who can resist falling in love on a boat? It's an Anastasia retelling for the gays and we're so happy we read it. Throw in the fictional World Federation of Monarchists, a demon cat, and feral grandmothers and this book hits the perfect spot. Enjoy!
Brazen banter: Corset slander resistance (because Alison can't resist)! John Mayer's secret Montana home! Ra-ra-rasputin!

Hey pals! Today, we’re obsessing over NEON GODS by Katee Robert in honor of Pride Month. Listen to us rave over two chaotic bisexuals in this Hades and Persephone retelling. They go wild with some pretty exciting kink and while we would be very uncomfy doing it, we're not here to yuck anyone's consensual yum! Plus, a surprise cat appearance in the beginning of the episode.

Hey pals! Today, we’re gushing over ACCIDENTALLY ENGAGED by Farah Heron. Reena is a beautiful bread baking goddess and Nadim is a man with a British accent and a new understanding of the power of clean shave. This book is an absolute delight that made us insanely hungry, gave us a new appreciation for foot fetishes, and somehow made checking for lice the sexiest thing ever. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did! We also highly recommend the audiobook--it had some delightful surprises.
