Photojournalist Lainey Hughes needs a stiff drink and a loose woman after her last assignment, but what she gets is a good dose of Scotch Fuller, dog sledder and Iditarod veteran.

When Lainey takes the assignment, she’s ready to learn all about the confident yet vulnerable Scotch.  She’s ready to learn about dogs, and the thrill of an endurance race.

But are they ready to learn about LOVE?

Yes.  They’re ready to learn about love, y’all.

This month on LadyLike, we take a reader suggestion and read fantasy-adventure Black Blade Blues by J.A. Pitts!  (Thanks, Cat!)

Sarah Beauhall is a hesitant lesbian, enthusiastic SCAdian, competent blacksmith, D-movie propmaster, and…. a dragonslayer?

When she re-forges a broken sword, she sets in motion a series of events that will force her to confront her feelings for her girlfriend, her self, and her real, true family.

Anyway, dragons and girl kissing — come get ya some.  Let’s talk about self-loathing homophobia, and also Portland ice creameries.

Plan on reading along?  Pick up a copy via the Amazon links below and we get the tiniest amount of money that we can spend on more books.

013 – The Night Off [ 1:05:05 | 29.79 MB ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Warning:  This is a dirty book, so this is a dirty podcast!  Mom, don’t listen to this one!  REALLY!

Emily Parker is too busy accounting and raising her kid sister to do things like, you know, have a relationship.  But that’s why we have sex workers, right?

Nat Swayne is a grade-A stud who knows a thing or two about pleasing a lady.  Emily Parker seems like her dream client, with interests that sync perfectly with her own.

Perhaps… too perfectly.  Perhaps… feelings get involved.

Perhaps this book uses sex — a LOT of sex — to develop character and advance the story.  PERHAPS!

We dig right into our dirtiest book with unmitigated enthusiasm.

Join us, won’t you?  Pick up a copy using the links below and put the tiniest amount of money in our pockets:

• Buy it in paperback and read it on the bus, I dare you
• Buy it on Kindle (also readable using the Kindle app for Android and iOS)
