Hello Beautiful Joylover! This is the public preview of June's Temple-only episode! We finally get to tell you all about our secret activities! Jenny, Katee, and Melody have been working hard to bring a brand new bonkers romance series into the world.

Peculiar Tastes is a contemporary fantasy romance series that's set in our fictional Samhain festival, The Shadow Market. The series will be launching via a Kickstarter that includes decadent special editions (ebook, paperback, and hardback!) and swag that will only be available through the Kickstarter. Follow our prelaunch page so you don't miss when Katee launches the campaign on July 12th! And Temple members are getting a sneak peek at some of the art we've commissioned!

In the Temple-only version of this episode, Melody then recaps the first part of Miranda Silver's Deliver the Devil! It's the HEA follow-up to Desire the Star. There are BUCKETS OF COME. Then, Jenny and Katee geek out about Black Sails to the point that they coerce Mel into watching. Huzzah!

As always, if you’re looking for more bonkers in your life, check out The Temple of Defiant Joy!
