We’re talking age gap romances, how they played out in the early days of the genre, how they remain popular today, and what has happened (or not!) in the books to make them viable today. We try to keep this one taboo but not dark, sexy but not erotic…but by the end, we’re not making any promises.

Women don’t wait for change, we make it. We’ve broken barriers, made history, and fought for justice every step of the way. Today, we honor the women who came before us and keep pushing for those who will come after. The fight isn’t over. Let’s get to work.

Happy International Women's Day! May every woman find their way into the room where their voice is most needed—whether that's a board room, a legislature, or a PTA meeting. When we stand up and speak our values, women change the world!

Me on my best day as a writer: “I’m only getting started. I’m gonna put in the work and get better.” Me on my worst day as a writer: “I’m only getting started. I’m gonna put in the work and get better.” Put in the work. Don’t settle. Never quit.
