This episode welcomes Lindo Forbes as our guest host for the night so please give her a warm welcome. I don’t think she knew what she was in for when she placed her bid 😆. We auctioned off an episode for Romance for Maui with proceeds going to local Maui organizations to help provide relief due to the wildfires Hawaii is experiencing. Our contribution included some lucky person who could pick a book and then guest host an episode with the two of us crazy ladies. And that lucky (or not as the case may be 😂) is Lindo Forbes.

Intro and Outro music:

We Ascend Instrumental by Michael Briguglio


Dive into the shadowy corners of love stories with Trigger Warning Romance. This podcast is an unflinching deep-dive into the books and narrative tropes that live within the dark romance genre, where themes often venture into morally complex and explicitly taboo territory. Each episode is a candid conversation, dissecting the compelling, sometimes uncomfortable, elements that define these stories-from power dynamics and specific triggers to the controversial plot devices that keep readers hooked. We approach every discussion without judgment, fostering a space for curious adults to explore these narratives thoughtfully. You’ll hear detailed breakdowns of popular and obscure titles, analysis of why certain dark tropes resonate, and frank acknowledgments of content that requires a strong constitution. This is a podcast for listeners who understand that romance isn't always light, and that exploring the darker facets of desire and fiction requires a mature, nuanced perspective. Prepare for thoughtful, explicit, and deeply engaging talks that respect the genre and its audience. Remember, you must be at least 18 to listen.
