Another week closer to our Christmas episode! This week we talk about another book full of holiday cheer, written by the king of satirical erotica and two time Hugo award finalist, Chuck Tingle. Alex also learns the difference between sentient and centaurs. 

Alex mixes history (his favourite subject) with romance (Dani's favourite subject) by counting down 10 facts about Dating that will surprise you! And it wouldn't be December without another excerpt from everyone's new favourite Christmas novel, Slammed by Santa.

December is here, and the festivities commence! Dani drops another quote from her new favourite Christmas story, a turkey that isn't the only thing getting stuffed this holiday season, and the joys of Hallmark holiday films. 

We're back on our words box! This week Dani and Alex discuss a certain word that could mean cat (but doesn't) and whether historical accuracy is important when your characters are getting down and dirty. 

Dani contemplates implementing a Three Date Rule, and Alex has man flu.

Dani opens Alex's eyes to the romance subgenre of Holiday-themed erotica, and then revisit their feelings about 2005 rom-com The Wedding Date, which leaves Dani annoyed at Debra Messing's treatment of the love interest. 

Alex watches the rom-com What's Your Number? for the first time, and we have THOUGHTS. 

In which we talk about book research, the classic chase scene that is quintessential in romance stories, and the one rom-com we cannot agree on. 

Romance author Dani McLean and her ex-husband slash roommate discuss their 10-year relationship, recent divorce and what they are after in a relationship now that they are single.
