Softcover

📚 In this episode of Softcover, your two favorite book besties dive headfirst into Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston—a swoony, love story that had us screaming, crying, and googling if Prince Henry is real (he’s not…we checked).

We’re talking about what happens when politics meets passion, the joy of watching two ridiculously attractive people fall in love, and how our podcast is basically a dual citizen—born in London, raised by two American girls with contently forgot Brexit happened in 2016. We’re living in a fantasy where love has no borders, the monarchy is hot, and diplomacy is...very gay.

Expect giggles, royal thirsting, and some unhinged commentary as we fangirl our way through this iconic rom-com.

💌 Love makes us political, flirty, and mildly delusional—and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

🎧 Listen now, follow Softcover for more chaotic book chats, and share this episode with your favorite fake First Son or royal crush. Your DMs deserve this level of flirty foreign policy.

📖✨ Calling all drama lovers, book bingers, and hopeless romantics—Softcover Podcast is back with another juicy read, and this one’s dripping in betrayal and complicated love. Warning: This episode features a fierce female lead, a tangled web of secrets, and two co-hosts spiraling (in the best way possible). This week, we’re obsessed with A Heart of Desire and Deceit by Elena Gallea—and more importantly, we’re obsessed with Brynleigh, the bold, brilliant, no-BS heroine at the heart of it all.

She’s got smarts and survival instincts that put the rest of the cast to shame—and let’s be real, we’d totally follow her into a plot full of betrayal and danger any day. Whether she’s dodging lies, chasing the truth, or cutting off toxic men with the precision of a chef’s knife, Brynleigh is the main character energy we live for.

 As always, we’re here with unfiltered opinions, chaotic commentary, and lots of name calling (you’ve been warned).

Perfect for fans of dark romance and messy characters making messier decisions. Let’s just say… we didn’t read this book, we devoured it.
