S1 E12—The Bride by Julie Garwood with Jen Prokop

Join us this week as I discuss a 1989 HistRom classic with our guest, Jen Prokop of Fated Mates fame—The Bride, by Julie Garwood!

Jen and I talk about how tense and POV has shifted over the years, how the pacing of love scenes has shifted as well as whether the focus is on the falling in love or the steam, the comfort of a great Scottish Highland romance, and Garwood’s skill at writing humor, allowing her to lean into archetypes.
