While ex best friends Jen and Amy reconnect after twenty years apart, will they let their current positions of managing their respective country’s women's futbol clubs get in the way of their happily ever after?

Note: Please excuse Veronica’s audio quality–she didn’t realize the wrong microphone was selected. Life is hard.

We’re kicking off Pride Month with a sapphic soccer (football, for everyone outside the U.S.) romance: Rowin’s Second Half by K.R. Lockling. Rowin is a soccer star and River is fresh off a breakup. The meet cute? River being embarrassed on the jumbotron at one of Rowin’s games. We have…a lot to say.

To conclude Mariana May, we read her latest tome, The Things We Water. Zapata’s longest book by far dives into romantasy/paranormal territory with magical beings, gods, and old country lore. We follow Nina as she travels to a compound where magical beings can live safely. Run by her friend’s (hot, werewolf) cousin, she finds she needs to follow a very specific set of rules in order to stay. It shouldn’t be any trouble finding someone to marry. Right?
