S2E20 The Pucking Wrong Number - C.R. Ja...

Trigger Warning Romance: A Dark Romance Podcast
About this episode

TORI’S BACK!!!! So, it’s only fitting that we dive right back into our groove with a Trigger Tribe member recommendation: The Pucking Wrong Number by C.R. Jane (thank you Camille). This book surprised both in a good way, we weren’t expecting such a funny yet dark book all wrapped up in a hockey sports romance with a tattooed “ding-a-ling” to top it off! And that’s exactly why we shouldn’t judge a book by its hunky cover! As always, check the triggers and enjoy!
