621. RT Rewind: September 2002 Ads & Features


We’re going back in time to look at the ads and features of the September 2002 issue of Romantic Times!

This issue left us with many questions, such as:

What the hell is Tart Noir?

Are reviewers elsewhere too mean? (Not us – we weren’t online yet!)

How much lore is there about pesto?

Should you jump into a pile of leaves?

Should you soak crawfish tails in milk?

Why is an author defending polygamy?

What snack is best for reading and why is it not an apple?

We had a lot of fun, even if the feature article was a bit of a let down, so please come join us for assorted silliness, and a Shadow Prince with no neck!

Don’t miss the visual aids – so many screengrabs, so many weird necks!

Bound to the Shadow Prince

Support for this episode comes from Bound to the Shadow Prince by Ruby Dixon

If you have ever dreamed of being locked in a tower for a while, well, I have The book for you to read while you’re there. Bound to the Shadow Prince by Ruby Dixon is on sale on July 2.

In order to protect her kingdom from the wrath of a vengeful goddess, Princess Candra must remain locked inside a tower for seven years. Seven long years without a friend―or a lover―by her side.

And shut inside the tower with her? A Fellian, the enemy of her people, a fearsome warrior race complete with wings and claws and fangs. Nemeth is terrifying, cruel, and disturbingly magnetic. Candra should kill him for his supplies, but she’s desperate for his company…and his touch.

As time inside the unchanging tower rolls on, Candra uncovers the man behind the stony facade. And when their tenure hits an unexpected snag, Candra and Nemeth are forced to make a difficult choice. They’ll need to face an outside world they no longer recognize, one that threatens their lives and their surprising love.

Originally published on Yonder and later released as an audiobook, this is the first print edition of Bound to the Shadow Prince, a story that had over 2.7 million reads on Yonder, with a 9.82 rating. It’s over 500 pages, so grab your snacks, your beverages, your cozy blankets, and find yourself a tower to hide in while you read.
