Heaving Bosoms

We're bringing you a monster-sized episode for our first sexy monster! **heart-eyed emoji**. Join us for Firelight by Kristen Callihan, a romance mystery set in Sherlock Holmes Times which may or may not have made us spontaneously combust a couple of times. Callihan is a master of "show, don't tell" and we were riveted for every moment. Plus, let's review: Sexy. Monster.

Bonus content: New dog GOAT, Big Slash/Stab, tongue-only kissing, masquerade masks, fight scenes, and so much more! 

Self-Love Recommendations: 

Erin: For the People. Watch TV lawyers be terrible at their jobs and never get disbarred! 

Melody: Don't fall asleep in the bath. She didn't die, but she definitely snort-splashed everywhere.

Kendall H-O, you are descended from Pasithea, the youngest of the charities and personification of meditation and relaxation. You’re not all sleepy self-care, though, you’re way too well-rounded for that. With parents like Hera and Dionysis, Pasithea not only had a passionate love of family, but she knew how to have a daaaaamn good time.

Patreon Shout Out: 

Emily F., you are an occamy, a beautiful blue birdsnake that lays eggs of pure silver. You are very protective of your eggs, going to great lengths to both hide and defend them. Your most interesting ability is choranaptyxis, which is the ability to shrink or grow to fit any space. You can be as small as a thimble or as large as an ocean, depending on your mood. You’re the epitome of adaptation in action and that makes you both special and resilient.

Darleen C., You are a bowtruckle, an super-smart best friend stick insect that is peacable and shy until someone tries to cut down your tree. If anyone, especially a tree surgeon, threatens the bowtruckle and its friends, you will jump out of a tree and gouge out the attacker's eyes. But if the person offers the bowtruckle snacks, it usually buys them enough time to get away. What can we say? You like what you like and we support that.
