Plot Trysts
By Laine and MegArts
Plot Trysts episodes
- A Rogue to Remember by Emily Sullivan
This debut novel is about a woman taking her destiny into her own hands and a man haunted by the choices he's made as a archeologist/spy. So yes we loved it and it's super sexy and Indiana Jones gets brought up so sue us. You should probably read this right now.
35 min - The Heiress Hunt by Joanna ShupeWe're all for a good childhood friends to lovers plot, but we aren't fans of men who lie or meddling mamas without development. We do love women in sports always, however, even if their books let them down.44 min
- Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas
Laine and Meg don't know what this book was about, who the characters were, or why so much time was spent on subplots. This book is bad, you guys, but it's also kinda bonkers in an almost Cynster way and you know we're reading the rest of the Ravenels regardless.
39 min - Unmasked by the Marquess by Cat SebastianThis book takes on a lot of tropes in an innovative way while being inspired by Georgette Heyer, which we found very charming. We disagreed on the quality of the conflict, but it's definitely worth checking out.34 min
- Ravishing the Heiress by Sherry ThomasSherry Thomas continues to make us like narrative structures and plots we wouldn't care for written by anyone else. We're not sure this qualifies as our idea of romance, but it is a worthwhile read.30 min
- The Lady Jewel Diviner by Rosalie OaksMeg loves tinges of fantasy in a romance world, and this new release is a great example of the genre. Elinor has a sixth sense for jewels that her new tiny vampire bestie recognizes as magic. Add in a hot and honorable Earl who thinks he knows what's best for her, and you know we're all in for this fun, romance adjacent series.26 min
- Take Me by Jen TrinhThe third book in the Burlfriends Series has the excellent writing and boundary-pushing characters we've come to expect from Jen Trinh. We're not sure if we're cool enough for this book, but the believable characters and unique situations definitely got us talking.43 min
- The Duke Heist by Erica RidleyThis kickoff to a fun series about a family of Regency orphan Robin Hoods sets up Chloe and a Duke. Chloe is super forgettable, the Duke is super proper, and they have to navigate shedding their personas to go after what they really want. The book can be uneven at times, but the fun family dynamics and sexy encounters made it worth the read!28 min
- A Lady's Formula for Love by Elizabeth EverettLeader of a secret society of female scientists needs protection from a grizzled bodyguard. We manage to avoid doing our best Whitney impressions while discussing how fun the personal arc was and how let down we felt by the mystery.41 min
- Hidden Sins by Selena MontgomeryTrying to solve a family mystery and find the rumored treasure is much more fun with your super hot ex who is definitely moving on with his life. If only they'd stopped to buy her a sports bra and some clothes that fit - oh and if he didn't have a girl back home. In the end, we thought this was totally fine.39 min
