Ever wonder what happens when an arrogant princess and a dashing U.S. Navy officer find themselves stranded near the Florida Keys? This episode of Romance on the Rocks uncovers the whimsical and unexpected twists in Jude Devereaux's "The Princess." Join us as we humorously critique key plot points — from Aria’s endeavors of becoming a 1940s housewife to the intriguing inclusion of the chemical element vanadium.
As we sip on our delightful drinks — Meghan with her nutty pecan shot and coconut-citrus concoction, and Nicole with her martini including homemade lemon basil ice cubes — we also take a nostalgic trip back to Kathleen Norris's 1968 novel "Younger Sister." We discuss a “sweeter time” with age-gap romances and love triangles involving a man and his son. Our conversation highlights the jealousy, betrayal, and miscommunications that mark young Bee’s newlywed life as she tries to create a home and family.
We also award the “Boobie Prize” of the episode and give each of our romantic reads a Spicy Scoville Scale rating as well as offer a romantic reminder to our listeners. Whether you're a fan of classic romance novels or just love a good story, this episode promises to entertain and enlighten.
Please note this episode contains adult content, a trigger warning and book spoilers. (Meghan LOVES to spoil books.)
