ABOUT the HOSTS
New York Times, Washington Post & USA Today bestseller Sarah MacLean is the author of historical romance novels that have been translated into more than twenty languages.
As an author and a columnist for the Washington Post, Sarah is a leading advocate for the romance genre, speaking widely on its place at the nexus of gender and cultural studies. Her work in support of romance and the women who read led Entertainment Weekly to crown her "the elegantly fuming, utterly intoxicating queen of historical romance."
Jen Prokop’s lifelong romance habit began in 7th grade when she found a bag of remaindered romance novels in her grandmother’s basement. Jen is the romance correspondent for Kirkus Reviews.
