In this episode, we’re joined by Emma Kate to chat about her brand new hockey romance, Her Slap Shot, where she’s the head coach and he’s the player. We discuss the amount of hockey research needed to write the book, the challenge of writing a spicy book with the power dynamics, why a slow burn was a must for the situation and the characters, the importance of showcasing women sports leaders in a positive light, how she determines when to include spice and how much, and what she’s planning to write next.

Also, make sure to check out all of Emma’s books:

All of Emma’s books are available on Kindle Unlimited and Amazon.
