She's not hiding her book because she's embarrassed. She's hiding it because what she's reading is giving her something her sex life isn't — and nobody's asking what that means for your relationship.

Romance is the fastest-growing category in print. 51 million units sold in the last year. One in four NYT hardcover fiction bestsellers was romantasy. Women aren't casually reading this stuff. They're consuming it. Today I sat down with Carolyn Hood — certified sex therapist, licensed clinical social worker, and author of Sex Begets Sex: Reclaiming Desire as an Act of Female Empowerment — to decode exactly what's going on.

In this episode:

  • What dark romance, romantasy, and smut are actually giving her that real life isn't
  • Who's reading it — and why the numbers point straight to moms and long-term partners
  • The porn parallel nobody wants to say out loud (but we say it)
  • How to use her book to open a conversation you've both been avoiding
  • Why innuendo and anticipation are the low-effort moves with the highest return
  • 3 things you can do tonight to bring the heat from the pages into your bedroom
