Romance is having a huge moment and let's be honest, sometimes we all need a dose of a little happy ending. In this spicy bonus episode of Mamamia Out Loud, Jessie, Holly and Em V are diving deep into why we're all completely obsessed with love stories right now.

From seriously sexy fairies, Mr Rochester's problematic Victorian charm to complicated love stories set on the backdrop of Dublin (so romantic) — we're covering it all and getting way too invested in fictional relationships.

Plus, we'll play you a taste of Em's spicy obsession she's been listening to on her commute that has her practically levitating into work. 🌶️

We're sharing our favourite romance audiobook recommendations that'll transform your most boring tasks into something magical.✨
