    Author Madyn Rose - Canadian Contemporary Romance Author

    Summary: Canadian contemporary romance author Madyn Rose goes Backstage with the Book Babes for a delightful conversation about writing messy love stories as well as baseball romance, and embracing the many story ideas competing to get written. Madyn shares her writing journey with us and how she learned about the process by doing. As an avid Blue Jays fan, she kind of fell into writing baseball romance when her FMC needed to level up. And of course, once you fall into a found family world, some of the other characters will inevitably beg for their own stories to be told which led to her second release in the series, Chasing Summers She also tells us about how Dating Lexi, her dating romance, came to be. It’s a nontraditional romance where the female main character is young and widowed and on her healing journey. So, she dates multiple men as she dips her toe back into the dating pool. There ends up being three that could catch her heart, but only one wins out in the end and you might not guess who it is. So, this is not a why choose. Madyn, like many of us authors, has way too many ideas rattling around in her head, so the most difficult part for her is often choosing which one to write next. At the moment she is currently working on two different books. One will be the start of a new series and one will be the third book in her Twisters baseball romance. We also chat sports romance and what we all think might be up and coming sports we’ll be seeing more of. Because while hockey romance still has a strong hold on romance readers, there are definitely readers looking for something different. Madyn’s trope for life is Burn the World for Her. Her question for listeners is “What makes you want to read a book? Is it the hype, the reviews, the cover, the blurb? And also what other types of books would you like to see coming out? Do you like the current subgenres or something a little different. Enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts.

    Author Ellie K Drake - Hockey Romance

    Summary: Hockey romance author Ellie K Drake goes Backstage with the Book Babes for a delightful conversation about writing sports romance, the parallels between being a singer and songwriter and an author, and working a day job in marketing. Happy Canada Day! Ellie tells us about her experience as a national anthem singer. And even though she’s American, she does have a special love for the Canadian national anthem. This singing led to the idea for her first hockey romance book. She found once the idea took hold, the first draft spilled out of her in a month. But she didn’t initially have plans to turn it into a series. It just so happened that her side characters let her know they would be needing stories too. She has a lifelong life of sports, shared by her family, including her two grandmothers. And this is what led her to initially choose sports romance as her genre. And while hockey was her first, she may explore some other sports in the future. It also helps that she has some family members who have been involved with professional sports organizations over the years. Ellie still has a full time job like many of us, but she does find the marketing skills she uses there to be helpful in creating her author brand. She considers her brand to be fun, colorful and fabulous. She likes to use bright colors on her social media accounts as well as her tables at book signings. She loves to meet readers and other authors at signing events, and always brings her mini Skeeball game along, even if it is a bit of a hassle. Ellie tells us about the events she has coming up for the rest of the year and a couple in 2027. But check out her website or Instagram account for all the details. Ellie’s trope for life is enemies to lovers. Her question for listeners is “What makes you devour a book or laugh out loud. Are there any specific lines or scenes from books you’ve read?” We hope you enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts. And make sure to follow us on your fave platform.

Drake is an author, wife, and dog mom living in Wisconsin. When she's not busy writing her latest novel, she enjoys reading her favorite genres including romance, fantasy, and thrillers. She has three books out in her Milwaukee Steel Riders hockey romance series. Ellie has been making up stories her whole life and finally decided to put one down on paper. Her stories are funny, swoony, spicy, and always have a happy ending. She is also a musician, an avid baker, loves to volunteer for her favorite non-profits, and balances her creative pursuits with a career in marketing.

    Author Alli Temple aka Allison Temple - Queer Romance

    Summary: Queer romance author Alli Temple aka Allison Temple goes Backstage with the Book Babes for an insightful and fun conversation about leaving the publishing treadmill behind, the importance of noise cancelling headphones, and the Heated Rivalry effect. Special Guest: Mango, Alli’s shoulder cat. Alli tells us about the differences in spice levels between her two pen names and fills us in on the details of writing in multiple subgenres. Her books range from contemporary MM romance to her grim Reaper x ghost series and her popular lesbian pirate romance series inspired by The Princess Bride. Alli is not much of a plotter or a researcher, but she acknowledges the importance of research for accuracy in some areas. She’s happy to write anywhere but does require noise cancelling headphones for the perfect writing vibes. She also tells us all about the Winter Olympics shared world series she participated in recently. Her book Ski-Crossed Lovers is a MM romance featuring best friends, amnesia, and Olympic ski action. And also how the timing was great with Heated Rivalry creating a new fan base for queer sports romance books. Speaking of Heated Rivalry, we did go off on a bit of a side quest where Alli shares with us her personal experience going to see the Heated Rivalry premiere in Montreal before Connor and Hudson were famous. And a little bit of the background behind Jacob Tierney creating the series. This led us to talk about never discounting your back list and also how you can’t create fame, or predict the future of publishing, but you do have to be prepared to ride the wave if it hits. She shares with us how she uses her author voice as her brand and the importance of creating a community of fellow authors. Particularly authors that are at the same stage of publishing as you are. Her author voice: quirky found family side characters, a sense of safety, and dry humor. Alli’s trope for life is second chance. Her question for listeners is a two parter: What’s the last book you read that you’d recommend to everyone? What’s the book you read when you were 16 that you’d still recommend? We hope you enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts. And make sure to follow us on your fave platform.

    Sera Taino - Harlequin Special Edition Romance Author

    Summary: Harlequin romance author Sera Taino goes Backstage with the Book Babes for a fantastic conversation about writing for Harlequin, her LatinX Characters, and writing queer normative worlds. Sera Taino tells us all about winning a Harlequin romance contest which resulted in her novel being edited and published and how that led to her ongoing relationship with the publisher. Her novels focus on small towns, family & community connections, LatinX characters and different pairings both queer and MF. While Harlequin is her primary publishing outlet, she also enjoys finding anthologies where she can publish short romance stories. These are often to raise money for charities that are important to her. Sera tells us all about balancing family, her job as a high school teacher and her author life. She tells us about the importance of taking some time for herself after finishing a book, reading books and watching movies as well as exercising, eating well, and getting enough sleep. We also learn about Sera’s use of journaling and tarot cards in her creative process. If ever she’s staring at a blank page, she’ll take some time to journal which helps her reconnect with her creativity and her characters. She also uses tarot cards for inspiration. She finds the storytelling aspect and use of archetypes is very useful when exploring her characters and the story she’s currently working on. Sera has always been a fan of fanfiction and spent her teen years making fanfiction comics with her cousin. She’s been involved with lots of different fandoms over the years, and while she doesn’t currently have time to write it herself, she loves to read other people’s day in the life stories on Threads. Especially for Heated Rivalry. Her trope for life is slowburn. She loves an angsty journey to get to the HEA. Sera’s question for listeners is a fantastic one: If there’s a book you love your think she’ll like, drop it in the comments on our YouTube video or visit the Book Babes Instagram/Threads accounts to answer. Bonus points for queer or BIPOC authors. We hope you enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts.

    Kent Holland - Queer Romance Author

    Summary: Queer romance author Kent Holland goes Backstage with the Book Babes for an insightful conversation about queer joy, making connections in the romance community, and the different subgenres he writes in. Turns out the book babes have a lot in common with Kent Holland. He grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan where Alby lives and he shares a birthday with Nikki. Just goes to show you how connected we all are. He starts off telling us about his books which include the Marquis Men theatre romance series, the Wanderlust travel romance series, and his Frostbitten hockey romance series. He even has a Western romance in the mix. And his next release, Hothead, is the first book in a new firefighter romance series. Kent’s journey to authorhood was well planned and intentional. He studied English and entrepreneurship at school with a particular focus on online sales. This helped him grasp both the creative and the business side of being an independent author. His advice for aspiring authors is that writing is an art, but publishing is a business. He shared how important making connections with readers is and how his personal measure of success is when readers reach out to say they felt seen. Kent is also very focused on ensuring he’s navigating his career in the most mindful and ethical way possible. We talked about the impact of Heated Rivalry on queer romance including how it has brought many new readers into the community especially queer males who weren’t reading queer romance before. Kent’s question for readers is a two parter. The first part is for LGBTQ2SL+ readers. What aspects of your experience have you seen in literature that you’re excited about or what aspects haven’t you seen that you’d love to see? And part two is for everyone. What drew you to the romance genre as readers or writers and what was it that brought you to this wonderful space? Please answer in the YouTube comments or follow the book babes on social media to answer there. We hope you enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts. And make sure to follow us.

I live in a beautiful Southern town with my partner and our adorable cat, Poppyseed, who spends most of her free-time trying to step on my keyboard when I'm writing.

    Author Eden Knox - Hockey Romance Author

    Summary: Sports Romance Author Eden Knox goes Backstage with the Book Babes for a fun, chaotic chat about her Sin Bin hockey romance series, Apollycon and other amazing book signing events, work life balance, and making connections with other authors. She tells us all about her green flag men and how her dom MMC just happened to be a Cinnamon Roll at heart. So she’d like to coin the term Cinnadom if it’s not already a thing. Eden has been a lifetime fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins and her first crush was Jaromir Jagr. To say she was devastated by his trade is an understatement. So when she decided she wasn’t going to be the next Anne Rice and pursued contemporary romance instead, hockey romance was the natural choice. She spills the tea on her new book in the Hell’s Hollow interconnected world. She’s doing this one with a group of her romance author friends. So then we get into the importance of forming connections and building a support group with other authors. She’s got an amazing group and is happy to shout about how we collaborate, we don’t compete with other indie authors. She even got quoted in the press for this. Eden tells us all about her amazing experience at Apollycon and meeting JR Ward twice. She’s got a great story about this, but you’ll have to listen to hear it. She also tends to overbook herself, so she’s got lots of events coming up. We talk self care and balance and how sometimes you have to keep your deadlines to yourself so you don’t get overwhelmed. Eden knows all about that as she currently works in a library while writing books and completing a Master’s degree in Library And Information Science. Eden’s question for listeners is: “Sprayed Edges or No Sprayed Edges?” Let us know in the comments or on our Instagram/Threads posts what your preference is. We hope you enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts. And make sure to follow us.

    Interview with Frances Everly/FD Everly - Spicy Contemporary & Romantasy Author

    Summary: Canadian Romance Author Frances Everly goes Backstage with the Book Babes for a delightful chat about writing in multiple subgenres, the importance of a quality cover, and filling her well by meeting readers at book signing events. Frances writes contemporary romance in a variety of subgenres including rockstar, and sports romance under the name Frances Everly and she writes romantasy including her King Arthur inspired series under the name FD Everly. And she shares the inspiration for her first book as well as what keeps her going forward with new ideas. Frances has been writing since she could put a pen to paper and has notebooks full of poetry from her emo high school years, but didn’t start publishing until shortly before the pandemic. She initially published with an indie publisher but got the rights back and went forward to forge her own path and learn all the ins and outs of self publishing. She tells us all about how she refills her well after a big book signing weekend by taking some time off and resting on the couch for a couple of days. As much as you can when you’re a mother of a couple of young children. But also how meeting readers is another thing that keeps her inspired to get those words down. Nikki and Frances have a long history and have known each other since their early days of publishing. They attend a lot of the same local book fairs and signings and this friendship has led to an amazing idea they’re excited to share. A Canadian sports romance convention likely to be held in the Hamilton area. Which will be great for all the Heated Rivalry fans as there are several HR filming locations in the city. They’ll be sharing more on this soon so stay tuned. Frances’ question for listeners is a very specific one. For those of you who enjoy a secret baby or accidental pregnancy romance, would you read a book with the Jane the Virgin style concept of spontaneous pregnancy when both the MCs are virgins? She needs to know. If you don’t like pregnancy books, no need to chime in. We get it, not every trope is for every reader. We hope you enjoy the show, and if you do, leave us a review on Spotify, Apple, YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts. And make sure to follow us.
