Episode 3: My Shocking Monte Carlo Confession by Heidi Rice
This week we delved into Heidi Rice’s My Shocking Monte Carlo Confession, a category romance! Big fans of the MMPB here. Listen to us consider: What is the shocking confession?
But first! We tried some new taglines. Let us know whose suggestion you prefer. [KATE! Maybe we could do a Twitter POLL? For ENGAGEMENT?]
And please enjoy Hanna’s show notes on the website that Kate made:

We do not have clarification on when a writer can use “F1” and when they need to make up a name like Super League. Please help us.
Unfortunately, we were not able to work a Walt Whitman reference into this episode.
The quote that rendered Kate speechless: “Say it, forget it; write it, regret it.” –Dorinda Medley, Real Housewives of New York

This was another book that made us want a heroine as the race car driver. Maybe we’ll try this next season. [LINK KATE TO THE CATEGORY YOU FOUND]
The v important Maisie Peters bridge living rent free in our minds.
No playlist in this book. . . so we made one!
Will next episode be a book of our hearts? Read Unfixable by Tessa Bailey and tune in to find out!
Is Mattia Binotto our hero? (Or could it be the man who bought his son an F1 team and also probably paid for this article?)
