Full Moon Friday
Manage episode 471454959 series 3601191
The full moon and lunar eclipse bring out the wild side in our bookish biddies as Meghan Leigh and Nicole Danielle venture into the world of werewolf smut for a howling good time.
Meghan delves into "The Wolf Wore Plaid" by Terry Spear, where Scottish clan werewolves provide security for a Hollywood film production at their ancestral castle. Heather McNeil, a successful baker and alleged "wild card," finds herself drawn to clan second-in-command Enric McQuarrie while sabotage threatens the production. What starts as reluctant attraction develops into a thoughtful courtship filled with intentional gestures and surprising tenderness.
Meanwhile, Nicole explores A.C. Arthur's "The Alpha's Woman," featuring Kira Radney, who escapes her pack after her mother's mysterious death. When alpha male Blaez discovers her on his territory, their physical chemistry ignites against the backdrop of werewolf politics, Greek mythology connections, and ritualistic mating practices. The novel balances steamy encounters with genuine character development and body-positive representation.
Our hosts unpack fascinating werewolf romance conventions – from mating-for-life commitments to full moon libido spikes and transformation differences. The conversation takes hilarious turns when discussing romance novel anatomy vocabulary like "feminine folds," "bulbous heads," and "turgid lengths" that populate these paranormal pages. Both books earn a Scotch Bonnet rating on the Spicy Scoville Scale, offering genuine heat without overwhelming the storylines.
Beyond the supernatural elements, these werewolf romances deliver a surprisingly profound relationship reminders: continue courting your partner even after commitment and communicate with each other during intimate moments.
