Her debut romantasy, The Lioness in Winter, is filthy in the way that sneaks up on you, like, “Oh cute, fantasy politics” and then suddenly you’re reading a sex scene that makes your soul leave your body and your Kindle file self-destruct. We’re talking betrayal, power, pole dancing, and men who choke respectful...
SEASON FINALE, besties. And Misty O’Hara showed up ready to cause problems.
Misty O’Hara walked into the studio and my coochie started clapping like it recognized her from a past life. No warning, no warm-up — just instant chaos, feral energy, and the kind of presence that makes you forget your morals and your microphone settings.
This explicit season finale is so unhinged it should come with legal counsel. We dive into...

Blood play. Pussy power. Assassins on leashes. Constance is joined by USA Today bestselling author Naima Simone to deep dive into HUNTSMAN, her deliciously unhinged fairytale retelling where Snow White becomes the predator and the Huntsman begs to be cut—and not just emotionally.

This week on Cocktails & Cliterature, we’re talking about Fate’s Last Melody—aka the book that yanked us to hell by the hair and gave us a threesome in the Circle of Lust before breaking our hearts with betrayal (and a blowjob scene that needs a trigger warning).
But this isn’t just book tal...
This week on Cocktails & Cliterature, we’re getting all up in our feelings and our fantasies, with USA Today bestselling author Kristina Forest. She’s the high priestess of slow burns, the queen of soft Black love, and the reason we’re all simping over emotionally available R&B boys.

Gods who beg. Dreams that fuck. Grief, guilt, and galaxy-sized smut.

In honor of Juneteenth, we’re turning the volume up on Black joy, unapologetic pleasure, and soul-shaking yes energy with debut author Natasha Bishop—and babe, she did not come to play.
Her breakout novel Only for the Week isn’t just spicy, it’s a whole-ass reclamation. Set in lush, sun-drenched Tulum, it’s second-chance romance with wrapped hair, waist beads, and a man who’ll read to you, wreck you, and respect you af...
Cancel your plans and light a damn candle! We're going deep into cursed libraries, shadow tentacles, and book boyfriends who bite.

We’re getting down with Stephanie Napolitano author of Fall from Grace and baby, it’s not just the characters who are getting emotionally wrecked and absolutely railed.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
