Episode notes

Christina Braver writes steamy, contemporary romance usually set in the Pacific Northwest. Her stories are character driven and feature strong heroes with softer sides, heroines who make it happen, and the guaranteed happily-ever-after we all need.

“A little bit nerdy and a little bit dirty”, her books address deeper issues such as women’s sexual health and sex positivity for all.

When she isn’t writing, Christina can be found laughing too loudly with friends, sipping wine, or reading. She lives outside Seattle with her data-geek husband and two new adults who mostly don’t mind telling people what Mom writes.
