Take one strong alpha male shifter and one super smart yet culturally naive vampire, put them in an arranged marriage with a dash of political intrigue and a soupçon of sexual tension, and what do you get? Bride, by Ali Hazelwood!
Join Meg & Nikki this week as they talk:
* why we all KNOW what it means when you sniff a neck
* the importance of secret friendship languages for surprise unveilings
* the “science” of shifters changing with or without their clothes
* the…physics… of interspecies tingles in the groiny bits
Then head on over to our Substack comments and let us know what you think about the book!
