Katee Robert is here! Robin's here!

And we’re recapping The Winter King by C.L. Wilson! This special episode is dedicated to Temple member Robin's late mom, Elaine, who was a romance reader and all around badass. We wish we could've known her, but we're honored Robin came to join us to celebrate her with a delightfully bonkers book that includes an aphrodisiac, weather magic, and an ice king who demands one of the daughters of his enemy as his wife...he just isn't specific enough about which daughter!

Be sure not to miss Katee's latest, Wicked Beauty, which is out June 7th, but if you preorder it now through Inklings bookshop you get ridiculously hot art along with it! It's the next book in her Dark Olympus series and features Helen seizing her destiny and knocking Achilles and Patroclus on their asses as the three of them discover sizzling chemistry.

We'll be back next week to recap Dark Mafia Prince by Annika Martin with Johanna Shupe!

As always, if you’re looking for more bonkers in your life, check out The Temple of Defiant Joy!
