Bodice Rippers
This episode is recorded with Danielle and Kim together at the Canadian/U.S. Border.
info_outlineTeaser for this week:
"Chance Devereux had blown into town on a mission. He had some bull semen to buy in the next week, but in the meantime, finding himself stranded in Las Vegas waiting for the breeder was not the most painful of life’s situations. He’d played the slots and won, tried his hand at blackjack and lost, and now, showered and shaved and with a king-size buffet beneath his belt, he was ready to raise a little hell.
He was ready, for a woman. A nice, willing, uncomplicated woman."
In this episode, Kim and Danielle read the first chapter of Baby By Chance. We meet Cinnamon Roberts and Chance Devereux and learn about the events that put their paths on a collision course.
We also discuss the issues of presumed whiteness of characters in romance novels, long simmering issues with race in the RWA, class and status assumptions of characters, and why representation matters.
