    Post-Dollywood Catch-Up! (Bonus 331)

    Hey HBs! Sabrina and I sat down to record a public episode about False Comeback by Lily Mayne (!!), but we hadn't talked during my vacation to Dollywood, so 20 minutes in we decided to do a Patreon friend chat instead! Because we are hot geniuses. So, we promise you will still get Paladin's Faith with Sabrina, Rebekah, and Mel, but that'll come out September 4th. In this episode, you get a wide ranging update on Mel's trip, Sabrina's current catastrophe, and so much more. Love y'all!

    Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole (Part 4 of 4) | 439.4

    Hey HBs! We've got the final part of our recap of SWEET RUIN by Kresley Cole with Alexis, Sabrina, and Mel! When our episode ended yesterday, our couple was at the beginning of a pretty significant misunderstanding. See, Jo was clear that they would only have sex if they were in an exclusive, committed relationship. Little did she know, Rune’s in a very loophole headspace and he’s sure he can make her see things his way. If you want to hear about the first two books in the IAD series we recapped on the public feed, check out our episodes on THE WARLORD WANTS FOREVER and A HUNGER LIKE NO OTHER. We also have a whole collection of the rest of the books we've recapped on Patreon! This Friday on PATREON, Mel and Sabrina recap the second half of DARK SKYE by Kresley Cole! It's book 15 in the Immortals After Dark series! We jump in right where our hero realizes how idiotic his obsession with her sexual history is and the grovel ends up being pretty good! He’s got a lot to do to earn her trust. Want to support the show? Rate and review us on your favorite podcast app!

    Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole (Part 3 of 4) | 439.3

    Hey HBs! We're back with part 3 of our recap of SWEET RUIN by Kresley Cole with Alexis, Sabrina, and Mel. When we ended our episodes last week, Rune had whisked a badly beaten Jo off to his secret residence where he keeps all his most precious belongings to nurse her back to health. It’s a gorgeous hurt/comfort sequence and in the middle, she called out her brother’s name, but he’s pretty sure that very masculine sounding person must be a romantic rival he needs to kill, after he reminds her just how much all those nymphs love him. Enjoy! If you want to hear about the first two books in the IAD series we recapped on the public feed, check out our episodes on THE WARLORD WANTS FOREVER and A HUNGER LIKE NO OTHER. We also have a whole collection of the rest of the books we've recapped on Patreon! This Friday on PATREON,  Sabrina and Mel are welcoming BFF Rebekah back to chat about PALADIN'S FAITH by T. Kingfisher! We’ve got that hot spy friend and the paladin who was passed over by one god and then had his other god die on him… we get to see a nascent god flex it’s power. It’s so so so good.

    Dark Skye by Kresley Cole Part 2 (Bonus 330)

    Hey HBs! We jump back into this book right as Thronos has his great awakening to what an absolute dickhole he's been to Lanthe and how petty his purity obsession truly is when contrasted with losing her forever. YEAH, Thronos! It's about time. But can she trust it and reclaim her best friend and true love? We get into it!

    Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole (Part 2 of 4) | 439.2

    Hey HBs! Here's part 2 of 4 of our recap of SWEET RUIN by Kresley Cole. When our episode ended yesterday, our heroine Jo had just pulled a big ol’ voyeurism on Rune as he secured his newest informants... with his penis. And while he couldn’t see her, he could smell her, so he’s on the hunt to find her.  If you want to hear about the first two books in the IAD series we recapped on the public feed, check out our episodes on THE WARLORD WANTS FOREVER and A HUNGER LIKE NO OTHER.

    Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole (Part 1 of 4) | 439.1

    Hey HBs! BFF Alexis came to recap SWEET RUIN by Kresley Cole with Sabrina and Mel! It's the 16th book in the Immortals After Dark series and WE COULDN'T GET ENOUGH, so it's actually coming out in 4 parts over the next two weeks. But, Patrons have all 4 parts right now. We've got Jo, a scrappy orphan who was tasked with raising her newborn brother at just 8 years old. After being murdered at 11, she woke to figure out she's a liiiiiittle different. Now she's 25 and figuring out her paranormal existence all on her own. Then, we've got Rune, a 500 year old dark fae archer who spies for The Moriar... mostly with his penis. This sassy feral cat heroine is the only person who could possibly keep the attention of this bored, jaded hero, especially when they get locked in a battle of wills. WE LOVED THIS BOOK SOOOOO MUCH!

    Dark Skye by Kresley Cole Part 1 (Bonus 329)

    Hey HBs! Once again, this recording was supposed to be 45 mins to an hour and LOOK WHAT YOU GET! God, we loved this book. We discuss the slut-shaming hero, the brazenly unapologetic heroine, and all the Nyx goodness you could ever want! This book is Melanthe and Thronos, the sorceress and vreckoner mortal enemies and fated mates that we've gotten glimpses of in previous books! DELICIOUS.

Lady Loves: Sabrina: A cathartic cry. Or maybe a cathartic scream. Just let some of that steam out however you can! Mel: y'all. A motorized neck fan! It's been life changing! If you want to hear about the first two books in the series, check out episodes 1 and 2 of THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY and our bonus episode about THE UNDERMINING OF TWILA AND FRANK!
