Crescent City: Are Hunt and Bryce Really Mates?
Babes! We are back this week with a very special episode, covering a question that the fandom lovessssss to talk about: Are Hunt and Bryce really mates?! This is a HUGE question with a whole bunch of controversy surrounding it, so we try to treat it with the respect it deserves. We’re getting into, what, exactly when Hunt and Bryce have sex (including that WILD scene in Avallen), the arguments for (and against) them being mates, and the Bryceriel question. This week is slightly different, since we’re not providing our own theories, but discussing popular fan theories as well. Huge shoutout to our listeners Anastasia, Swizzy, and Nina for all of your help in researching this episode! WE ARE NOW ON PATREON!

"Siren Says" Author Jennifer Michelle Herrera on Career Pivots & Getting Published
Hello lovely listeners! We are back with our final episode of Dragons After Dark on Spotify, and it’s a great one! This week we are very excited to speak with Jennifer Michelle Herrera, author of the upcoming “Siren Says!” We sit down with Jennifer to talk about her (very unique!) journey to getting published, what advice she would give to aspiring authors as a literary agent, Alan Turing (of course), and what inspired her to write “Siren Says.” We absolutely loved having Jennifer on the show and hope you all enjoy listening to the interview as much as we enjoyed recording it!And as a reminder, starting next week this show will be available exclusively on Patreon, so if you want to keep up with all of Abby and Ronnie’s bookish shenanigans, be sure to subscribe there! For less than the price of a movie ticket you will be getting four extra episodes each month. Hope to see you on Patreon!Siren Says synopsis: Twenty-five-year-old Raven Wynn knows that the ancient plant magic running through her veins brings nothing but destruction. It doomed her Welsh ancestors. It killed her mother. It’s the reason she’s now bound by a painful curse—one that will destroy her if she can’t find a way to break its hold. When her estranged Aunt Delilah bursts into her life promising a cure, Raven seizes the chance. However, her freedom comes at a steep price: Once her magic is fully unleashed, she is more powerful (and more dangerous) than anyone thought possible. Desperate to tame powers she never wanted, Raven makes a pact with Delilah: In exchange for learning to control her magic, Raven will capture one of the spirits that roam Delilah’s hometown on May’s Eve. With the help of an enigmatic new friend, Cherry, as well as an infuriatingly handsome stoneworker, Idris, Raven learns that her task is even more perilous than she imagined—one false move and the spirits could trap her soul—foreverWE ARE NOW ON PATREON!
