We're joined by Dani Lacey to recap Soul Eater by Lily Mayne! We discuss what it’s been like watching the Ice Planet TikTok craze when Dani hosts the Ice Planet podcast. Jenny throws a full blown tantrum because Melody keeps getting to recap the books with cock pockets. We celebrate this charming, romantic, delicious, sexy AF triumph of a bonkers book that features a smoke monster and the sweetest human guy ever written.

Bonkers Romance Book Club! There's a survey going out to our members this week that'll give us some feedback on the kinds of books you'd like to be getting, but in the meantime, we've got exciting choices!
- Through the end of October, you have access to two Karina Halle books that Jenny personally selected as favorites of hers.
- In November, we'll be featuring advanced copies of King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett St. Clair--which is a dark, sexy fantasy. It's like if Alina chose the Darkling...but deliciously filthy.
- To get you in the holiday spirit, we'll also have advanced copies of Duke, Actually by Jenny Holiday in November, which is a royal delight.
Right now, through November 1, you have access to advanced copies of The Lady Gets Lucky by Joanna Shupe! We love Joanna's sexy, Gilded Age historicals and this one is pure catnip. Sex lessons! A reformed rake who falls for his excellent pupil. If you're not part of book club, you can preorder it now and it'll be out next week--or you can join now and get it early! Also keep a look out in the Temple for a bonus episode with Joanna!
Join the Temple of Defiant Joy on our website to get all of these books included with your membership!
