Food and Kilig
This episode is our season premiere and it’s about our favorite things: food and kilig. This week, the RomanceClass community released a charity anthology called NomCom. Fourteen short stories all set in a fictional food park called Nomnom Commons. It expands on our anthology last year called the Tropetastic Kindness Bundle, which were stories all set in a condo building called St. Tropez Court. Joining me to discuss food, kilig, and their stories in the NomCom anthology, are authors Brij Bautista, Danice Mae P. Sison, Layla Tanjutco, Chi Yu Rodriguez, and Tara Frejas.

Audiobook Excerpt – Chapter 2 – Iris After the Incident by Mina V. Esguerra (feat. Rachel Coates)
Because you seemed to enjoy the first chapter of the audiobook Iris After the Incident by Mina V. Esguerra so much, we’re sharing chapter 2 with you this week. Narration is provided by the amazing Rachel Coates.
Book description:
Which moment has defined your life so far?Whether she likes it or not, Iris’s life has been divided into two: Before the Incident, and After the Incident. Something very private was made very public, and since then life has been about recovering from being shamed, discovering her true friends, and struggling to find a new normal.
Two years into this new life and she finally connects with a guy again. He lives in the apartment down the hall, he’s hot, and he doesn’t look at her that way. He doesn’t know what happened. But he also won’t give her his name, not right away—which has to mean he’s got something to hide too.
Iris wants to start over. Should she do that with the only person who will understand, or is this the same idiotic decision that got her in trouble in the first place?

Order the print edition (Philippines)Book description
It’s too easy to fall in love with Jake. Don’t do it.Lindsay and Jake have loved each other (as friends) since their senior year in college, and she made sure they didn’t become more than that. The guy now known as Jacob Berkeley, star of a wildly successful TV show, was always too much for her. Too handsome, too many questionable hookups, too restless. Also sensitive, fun, and genuinely caring. She’s his emergency contact, his “zombie apocalypse buddy,” his holiday dinner companion.
They’ve kept up this low-maintenance friendship for years, surviving graduation, their new careers, her move to New York City to work as an environment consultant. But then, days before a big climate change conference, he shows up, with big news. Jake wants to pick up what he never managed to finish in college. He wants to save forests again, work in environmental research – and he wants her.
Don’t fall in love with Jake…Why again?
