Soulmates, Destiny, and Declarations of Love (ft. Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings)
As Sharon Jones so confidently sang, “Tell me you love me. Tell you care.” But doing it right is easier said than done. Professing your love can be anxiety-inducing and to quote De La Soul: stakes is high. To discuss the important elements of a genuine declaration of love, experienced assistance was required. Enter critically acclaimed authors, New York Times bestselling novelists, and funny friends Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings. Having written over 26 books spanning Adult Fiction and Young Adult Fiction, these long-time writing partners and best friends write under the combined pen name of Christina Lauren. With books full of amazing fictional characters and wish-it-happened-to-you romance, Christina and Lauren know a thing or two about how to weave a captivating declaration of love into impressive storytelling. Tune in to hear us discuss whether we believe in destiny, soulmates, and if Timothée Chalamet looks like an Italian shoe in Little Women.
Making our hearts flip this week: “As you wish” from Wesley (Cary Elwes) in The Princess Bride, “Ditto” from Sam (Patrick Swayze) and Molly (Demi Moore) in Ghost, “I’ve loved you since we were kids” from Sasha (Ali Wong) in Always Be My Maybe, and “I wanna be where you are” from Marcus (Randall Park) in Always Be My Maybe.
