At Least We'll Always Have Man Root

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Wherein we discuss Prisoner of My Desire by Johanna Lindsey (1991). Trigger warning for a story where consent has left the building, and everybody's traumatized. Annie explains the finer points of trauma bonding, Maude and Jayne ponder the parameters of "dark romance", and we desperately attempt to draw parallels between taboo romance fiction and true crime documentaries so we can all still sleep at night.

The Love At The End Of The Dildo Rainbow

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Queen Takes Rose by Katee Robert. Changing it up, Annie and Jayne explain this sapphic romance to Maude! Nominally a revamp of Sleeping Beauty (it's a bit of a stretch, but we'll allow it). Not a lot of action, but plenty of "action" (wink-wink), and a master class in responsible domination. Also, at what point does an excessive collection of strap-on dildos actually qualify as hoarding?

But What If She Likes It

Bodice Riffers Podcast

The Hooker and the Hermit by L.H. Cosway and Penny Reid. Special guest rugby player Captain Cupcake shares his expertise on the surprisingly erotic sport and Very Manly Opinions on everything from romance and sports fame to the relative heteronormativity of men washing their own asses. We discuss themes of consent, problematic romantic overtures, and surprising (if unlikely) alternative uses for car seat belts. Speaking of which, buckle up once again, friends, and prepare for a wild ride.

The Penis Prescription

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Knot Her Goal by Ari Wright (Book one in the MVP: Most Valuable Pack series). Welcome to the Omegaverse! Our heroine is a marketing superstar with an unfortunate medical condition whose only cure is four hot dudes to pamper her in between providing her with a whole lot of dick. A LOT. Oh, and there's, like, trauma processing and stuff.

Cum Is Not A Condiment

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Stalked By The Kraken by Lillian Lark. At last - TENTACLES! Annie needed a little support for this one, so welcome Guest Therapist "Penny Wise", as we discover new wonders and ask new questions. How many red flags are too many? Is it really stalking if he's just utilizing his professional qualifications? If you cut off an octopus dick, will it grow back? Buckle up, friends. This one is a wild ride.

After the Afterglow (Dirty Mafia Cont'd)

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Wherein we complete the Dirty Mafia Duet with White Knight by Meghan March. Family ties get complicated (is it incest when your half-brother and half-sister hook up even if they don't share parents with each other?) and our heroine - Drew? Memphis? Drewphis? - may have yet another secret identity even SHE didn't know about.

Shut Up And Enjoy The Afterglow

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Black Sheep by Meghan March. Book One of the Dirty Mafia duet. The heroine is not who she seems, the hero's name is a tad on the nose (but we're not mad about it), and playing solo shuffleboard is not a euphemism. Also, prepare for blue balls, literarily speaking, because this sucker ends on a cliffhanger.

B’coz In Montana, Everyone’s a Cowboy

Bodice Riffers Podcast

Wherein we discuss Big Sky River by Linda Lael Miller. A big-city fancy gal, a cowboy with no cows or horses, a passel of kids with no mamas, and a shocking lack of foreplay. These feuding neighbors know the best way to make nice is with lots of... "cookies".

Sexy Spin Doctor Shenanigans

Bodice Riffers Podcast

We discuss The Price of Scandal by Lucy Score (Bluewater Billionaires #1). A sexy lady billionaire discovers mixing business with pleasure is the perfect cure for her own public relations nightmare. Also, the meet cute is walking into the bathroom to find a hot naked guy smoking in the tub. Somehow this works exceptionally well. Just go with it.

Halloween Is For The (Sexy) Birds

Bodice Riffers Podcast

HALLOWEEN SPECIAL! Wherein we discuss Hunting Season by Shelly Laurenston. The corvid-winged minions of two Nordic gods rain vengeance upon the deserving, but mostly the two main characters trade witticisms between vigorous sexual marathons - and we are not mad about it. (Okay, Annie's a little mad about it.)
