Smart Women Read Romance
Niece and aunt duo, Jessen Judice and (author) Juliette Cross, bond over their shared love of romance novels, and want to include fellow romance enthusiasts in on the conversation. We started this podcast as a big middle finger to the stigma associated with reading and loving romance novels. We love to fangirl about our favorite books, authors, and characters and are challenging people to think of romance novels as more than just "mommy porn" - though there's nothing wrong with a copious amount of sexy times. Bring that *ish on!
This one goes out to all the fangirls! Life's better with a little HEA.

Smart Women Read Romance
Ep. 38 - Sapphire Flames by Ilona Andrews
One of my favorite things about this podcast is having a ton of new people to speculate about ongoing romance series. This is a big one! Not only do we get a change in POV for the series, but we have some new mysteries to uncover to go along with those plot threads that were left hanging at the end of Wildfire (Hidden Legacy #3). Before we deep dive into the story, listen to a brief chit-chat/check-in with Jessen and Juliette talk about kulning and the shenanigans of Juliette's other half who is obsessed with Wolverine (00:56). Get to know the characters, setting, and tropes during their spoiler-free discussion of Sapphire Flames (6:05). Spoiler Section: Juliette and Jessen compete in a Showdown where they each offer up their favorite scene to see which one reigns supreme (11:28). Then, take a deep dive into all the SPOILERY details of this ongoing, epic urban fantasy romance (18:09).
