Trigger Warning Romance

So, we took a flying leap off the runaway train during this Question and Answer episode. We don't know what you're expecting, but this probably isn't it. It's even better. We hit highlights from the history of dark romance to Tori's poly lifestyle to some of our favorite sex scenes, and all kinds of other things besides. We hope you thoroughly enjoy!

🚩  Discussions of non-con, dub-con, treacherous body syndrome, and consensual non-consent

So sorry for the interruption to our schedule these past 2 weeks, but our brains and life kinda imploded after the Dobbs decision and we needed a mental health break. We're still not quite back to our usual fun loving selves, but we're getting there.

Abortion is lifesaving healthcare. If you're just as devastated as us and feel like you need to do something to help please check out and support The National Network of Abortion Funds - https://abortionfunds.org

Nat and Tori have had a great deal of fun reading and talking about the Ruthless Obsession series by Zoe Blake these last few weeks, and both are more than a little sad to reach the series conclusion with this week's episode on Sweet Ferocity. We hope you've had even half as much enjoyment listening as we have recording.
