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.

Ep. 39 - Third Grave Dead Ahead by Darynda Jones
"Son of Satan" - a swoony chant that I heard from dozens of screaming fans during a panel at RT Vegas. After eliciting such a reaction, I had to find out who this hero was and holy hell was I glad I did! Before we deep dive into the story, listen to a brief chit-chat/check-in with Jessen and Juliette talk about Jessen's new obsession with rugby, the Amazon documentary on the NZ All Blacks, and the debate on what is the sexiest accent: Scottish or Kiwi (1:07). Get to know the characters, setting, and tropes during their spoiler-free discussion of Third Grave Dead Ahead (6:23). Spoiler Section: Juliette and Jessen compete in a Showdown where they each offer up their favorite scene to see which one reigns supreme (15:20). Then, take a deep dive into all the SPOILERY details of this ongoing, epic slowburn paranormal romance (21:24).
