All Worked Up By Pockets

Jess and Trisha tease the Intercepted book club discussion, come to terms with their 2018 romance resolution shortcomings (and Trisha asks for a little help!), look ahead to 2019 releases, and recommend some books with friendly, non-surly heroes.

This episode is sponsored by Duchess by Design by Maya Rodale, Unleashed by Caitlin Crews, and by TBR, Book Riot’s new subscription service offering Tailored Book Recommendations for readers of all stripes.

News:

Way back in the days before When In Romance, Jess wrote about her Westmoreland Project.

As Jess mentioned, Love In Panels served up some best bets for sci-fi romance in August.
