This week on The Romance Reader Podcast, we’re joined by bestselling romance author Maggie Gates to talk all things cowboy romance, BookTok, writing routines, and her upcoming release Blue Jean Summer! 🤠💙

We chat about:

• the Griffith Brothers series
• single dad & grumpy/sunshine tropes
• marriage of convenience romances
• indie vs traditional publishing
• audiobook obsessions
• writing playlists & dream fancasts
• why romance books are finally getting the spotlight they deserve

Plus… Maggie gives us the PERFECT Gen Z pitch for Blue Jean Summer:
“That’s my wife… but make it yeehaw.” 😭

If you love cowboy romances, small towns, forced proximity, and chaotic bookish conversations, this episode is for you.
