Episode 5 - Sinking into the Second Chance Romance Sea

Help! We're drowning in the yearning because we're discussing the second chance romance trope... But we have a friend to keep us afloat this time around, because SILVANA REYES aka Sil @THEBOOKVOYAGERS (Frolic, Book Riot) is our special guest for this episode! We talk why we're drawn to the trope, hate f*cks, falling in love all over again, and the aching domesticity in romance.
