AiméIn this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

He’s the boy that got her sent away… After being unceremoniously evicted from her craft shop right before Christmas, ambitious carpenter Dandelion Johnson must pick up shifts at her grandparents’ bakery to earn enough to sue her slummy landlord. Just trying to make it through the holidays, the last thing Andi needs is a distraction in the form of her brother’s best friend—the man who stole her heart years ago only to crush it in front of the entire high school. When her car breaks down in the middle of a snowstorm, she has no choice but to accept the ride home he offers. Reformed bad boy and cutthroat lawyer Winchester Robinson’s grandmother refuses to retire and make him a partner at the family law firm until he convinces her he values something more than just his win-loss streak. Discovering his old flame stranded on the side of the road could solve his problem but facing down her protective big brother and his own feelings of unworthiness might be too big of a roadblock for him to overcome. As the storm worsens, they’re forced to seek refuge at Win’s family’s house, where his Nana is staying for the holiday. Win seizes the opportunity and begs Andi to pretend to be his girlfriend for the weekend to appease Nana’s worries, offering to take on her lawsuit in exchange for the favor.

But when the volunteer who took over her leadership position for the town's Winter Wonderfest has a medical emergency, Bailey finds herself stuck in Lanford Falls. She gets roped into reassuming her old role, not wanting to let the town or her friends and family down. Staying home seems slightly less terrible when Bailey runs into her high school crush, Maria Hatcher. A kiss they shared years ago in the town's mistletoe grove was a life-defining moment for them both. Maria quickly offers to pitch in and help with Winter Wonderfest. Her sunny disposition and holiday cheer perk up Bailey's grinchy feelings about everything. However, one disaster after another snowball on the day of the festival. Bailey’s frustration boils over, and she ends up on the town's old wooden bridge. There, she meets fabulous drag queen Clara Angel. Bailey declares that she wishes she hadn’t been born in this Christmas-obsessed, suffocating small town.

When my injured sister guilt-trips me into organizing the town’s holiday celebrations, only a week after moving back home, all I want to do is survive the season, nurse my bruised heart, and start my life over. Now I have to co-chair a Christmas committee with a grouchy man I’ve never met. He has sexy curls, intense eyes that make it clear he craves my curves, and he dares look hot chopping down trees. He even likes it when I make fun of him! Grumps like him are my weakness. But I can’t be interested. Who cares if we bond over our disdain of the holiday nonsense around us. Who cares if we share private jokes or engage in benign Christmas-related vandalism. Or even if we share a kiss or two. I need time to be single and settle back into small-town living, not the distraction of an infatuation.

Boobies & Noobies: A Romance Review Podcast
The Novel: Almost Perfect The Author: E.F. Dodd The Guest: Briana , owner and founder of Wicked Words The Synopsis: All he wants for Christmas is her. Dave Richardson's life hasn't turned out the way he thought it would. He never expected to slink back to his hometown of Rochester two years ago and take a bartending job, nor did he expect he'd still be tending said bar. Everyone thought he would achieve great things. Hell, he'd believed he would achieve great things. But when Vivian Walters walked into his bar, wearing that dress, on a random Wednesday night . . . things were looking up for the first time in a long time. And they looked even better when he got her number, even if it was obvious she didn't see things between them lasting beyond her night out on Sunday. If he wanted to keep a woman like her, he'd need to become the man he was supposed to be, and fast. If there was one thing Vivian "V" Walters liked almost as much as designer heels, it was checklists. They'd served her well her entire life- first with college, then med school, landing the perfect internship followed by an even better residency, and, finally, her dream job. So far, her checklist for the perfect man hadn't panned out the same way. But that didn't mean she would lose her ever-loving mind and chuck it all out the window for a hot, sweaty weekend with a bartender . . . right? No matter how good he looked in those worn jeans, or how his blond hair curled just so at the nape of his neck, or the way his deep-brown gaze made her stomach somersault. And even if she gave in to her purely physical attraction to him, it wouldn't be anything other than a fling . . . would it?

But after her sister decides to get married in her snowy hometown in Colorado on New Year’s Eve, she’s left with no other choice but to return to the scene of the worst mistake she’s ever made. Though assured several times by family members that the man who had her heart for so many years would not be home, Rosie runs into him the first day she arrives. Immediately, she’s left wondering how she could ever walk away from him again. With the wedding, the holidays, their families being so close-knit, and the fact that they’re neighbors, it’s looking more and more like there’s no way for them to avoid falling back in love with one another. Can they manage to forgive each other and themselves and put the past behind them, or will it catch up and run their new relationship into the ground? Watch as Rosie navigates meddling mothers, bridezilla sisters, a heart-melting love interest, and the general insanity that comes with the holiday season.

She’s too blond, too quirky, or Just. Too. Much. So she’s ditched dating to focus on her job and a house filled with drama and plenty of tea. Now with the holidays and a major blizzard on her doorstep, Becca has everything she needs to survive the next two weeks on her own. Hot cocoa, plenty of books . . . and the memory of a steamy kiss with a certain sexy, grumposaurus next-door neighbor to keep her warm. Only Becca’s seriously underestimated this Snowpocalypse. So when the power goes out and Harrison Cooper—football coach, master crank, and the guy who acted mega-awkward after said steamy kiss—offers her shelter, it only makes sense to accept. They’ll just be Blizzard Buddies. Hang out, stay safe, and maybe indulge in a little R-rated cuddling .

Join debut author, Camille Kellogg, and I as we discuss her debut release, Just as You Are . Other topics include our favorite adaptations of Pride and Prejudice (in books and on screen), how early 2000s romcoms shaped our romance reading journeys, and of course, the importance of queer joy in media today. Happy Pride, y'all! Guest: Camille Kellogg , author of Just as You Are Book Summary: The only thing worse than hating your boss? Being attracted to her. Liz Baker and her three roommates work at the Nether Fields, a queer magazine in New York that’s on the verge of shutting down—until it’s bought at the last minute by two wealthy lesbians. Liz knows she’s lucky to still have a paycheck but it’s hard to feel grateful with minority investor Daria Fitzgerald slashing budgets, cancelling bagel Fridays, and password protecting the color printer to prevent “frivolous use.” When Liz overhears Daria scoffing at her listicles, she knows that it’s only a matter of time before her impulsive mouth gets herself fired. But as Liz and Daria wind up having to spend more and more time together, Liz starts to see a softer side to Daria—she’s funny, thoughtful, and likes the way Liz’s gender presentation varies between butch and femme. Despite the evidence that Liz can’t trust her, it’s hard to keep hating Daria—and even harder to resist the chemistry between them. This page-turning, sexy, and delightfully funny rom-com celebrates queer culture, chosen family, and falling in love against your better judgment.

1:00:30 Lire Plus Tard Lire Plus Tard Des listes J'aime Aimé1:00:30
Lire Plus Tard Lire Plus Tard Des listes J'aime AiméEpisode Summary: This episode has been a long time coming, and it's a wild one for sure! We cover everything from the wonderful world of fanfiction - "The Practice" and the Green & Pink Power Rangers, obviously - to the effects of purity culture on readers and writers today, and even a few helpful tips for how to write more authentic fat characters in romance novels. Guest: Kayla Grosse , author of Rein Me In (The Cowboys of Night Hawk) Book Summary: BLAKE TANNER never thought she’d return to her hometown after her brother Reed died in a tragic accident. But when her mom gets injured, she comes home to help out on her family's ranch. Now, only five years after her brother's accident, she can’t hide from the grief, the people, or the guilt that she's been running from. GAVIN MONTGOMERY didn’t plan for his life to be this way. He didn’t ask to be stuck with a pile of debt, the responsibility of a failing family business, or a little brother with a drinking problem. But when his dad died nine months ago, Gavin had no choice but to step up and take care of his family, even if that involved hiding the truth from them: that they’re about to lose everything. When Blake reluctantly agrees to attend a charity “date auction” at the local townie bar, she figures supporting the family of her late brother's best friend is the right thing to do. Only Gavin is no longer the sweet young boy she remembers, and when he challenges her to ride the mechanical bull in front of the whole town, what choice does she have but to saddle up. But getting back in the saddle might be a mistake. Because even if she's an expert rider, there’s no way in hell she's letting that cowboy hold the reins. Will Blake and Gavin find a way to work through their grief and ride off into the sunset? Or will they be over faster than an eight-second ride? Authors Note: Rein Me In is the first in The Cowboys of Night Hawk series. This book can be read as a standalone novel and has a HEA. Please know that while there are lots of fun and uplifting moments in this book, the characters also deal with themes of loss, grief, alcohol abuse, and depression. Show Notes: - May Patreon Shoutout - Kelly and Kayla have WAY too much in common - Soap operas as gateway into reading (and writing) romance - How purity culture has affected a generation of romance readers (00:07:19) - Glad to know I'm not the only person who watched "The 10th Kingdom" - From "The Practice" to "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" ... Kayla is a shipper - Don't try to legislate LGBTQIA+ romances "for the sake of kids" when there have ALWAYS been cishet romances in our media - How positive fat rep in "Hairspray" changed our outlook on love (00:17:45) - Fat joy & fat liberation - How the love we see in books and on screen affects the way we receive love in real life (00:27:30) - From rockstars to cowboys... - The almost bull ride that inspired Rein Me In - Writing meet cutes from missed opportunities - Third.

Lire Plus Tard Lire Plus Tard Des listes J'aime AiméEpisode Summary: We had waaayyy too much fun with this one! Join debut author, Sarah Hawley, and I as we discuss her debut release, A Witch's Guide to Fake Dating a Demon. She also gives us an inside look at the rest of the series... can you say, "I accidentally summoned a succubus from a stone I bought on Ebay?" Other topics include incorporating current issues and political messaging into paranormal/fantasy romance, lusting after men in black leather gloves, and the emotional rollercoaster of publishing your first book. Enjoy! Guest: Sarah Hawley , author of A Witch's Guide to Fake Dating a Demon Book Summary: Mariel Spark knows not to trust a demon, especially one that wants her soul, but what’s a witch to do when he won’t leave her side—and she kind of doesn’t want him to? Mariel Spark is prophesied to be the most powerful witch seen in centuries of the famed Spark family, but to the displeasure of her mother, she prefers baking to brewing potions and gardening to casting hexes. When a spell to summon flour goes very wrong, Mariel finds herself staring down a demon—one she inadvertently summoned for a soul bargain. Ozroth the Ruthless is a legend among demons. Powerful and merciless, he drives hard bargains to collect mortal souls. But his reputation has suffered ever since a bargain went awry—if he can strike a bargain with Mariel, he will earn back his deadly reputation. Ozroth can’t leave Mariel’s side until they complete a bargain, which she refuses to do (turns out some humans are attached to their souls). But the witch is funny. And curvy. And disgustingly yet endearingly cheerful. Becoming awkward roommates quickly escalates when Mariel, terrified to confess the inadvertent summoning to her mother, blurts out that she’s dating Ozroth. As Ozroth and Mariel struggle with their opposing goals and maintaining a fake relationship, real attraction blooms between them. But Ozroth has a limited amount of time to strike the deal, and if Mariel gives up her soul, she’ll lose all her emotions—including love—which will only spell disaster for them both.

Lire Plus Tard Lire Plus Tard Des listes J'aime AiméEpisode Summary: Be sure to stock up on snacks before listening! On this hunger-inducing episode, author Amanda Elliot joins me to discuss her latest release, a food critic v. food critic romance called Best Served Hot . Other topics include the symbiotic relationship between food, sex, & romance, the surprisingly positive impact the Covid-19 pandemic has had on 2023 book releases, and a bit of 90s nostalgia. Enjoy! Guest: Amanda Elliot , author of Best Served Hot Book Summary: Two restaurant critics learn their opposing tastes might make for a five-star relationship in the next foodie romantic comedy from the author of Sadie on a Plate. By day, Julie Zimmerman works as an executive assistant. After hours, she’s @JulieZeeEatsNYC, a social media restaurant reviewer with over fifty thousand followers. As much as she loves her self-employed side gig, what Julie really wants is to be a critic at a major newspaper, like the New York Scroll. The only thing worse than the Scroll’s rejection of her application is the fact that smarmy, social-media-averse society boy Bennett Richard Macalester Wright snagged her dream job. While at the Central Park Food Festival, Julie confronts the annoyingly handsome Bennett about his outdated opinions on social media and posts the resulting video footage. Julie's follower count soars—and so does the Scroll’s. Julie and Bennett grudgingly agree to partner up for a few reviews to further their buzz. Online buzz, obviously. Over tapas, burgers, and more, Julie and Bennett connect over their shared love of food. But when the competitive fire between them turns extra spicy, they'll have to decide how much heat their relationship can take.
