    To wrap up our pre-Valentine’s Day week of reads, we revisit two roundtable discussions with contemporary romance authors.

  • A meet-cute followed by real life: 'Party of Two' is about love in the real world
    2026/01/29
    Romance writer Jasmine Guillory writes beautiful love stories – but that doesn't mean they aren't based in reality. Her novel Party of Two, from the summer of 2020, is about a Black woman and a white man who have a meet-cute and start a casual long-distance relationship. But race does have an impact on their connection because of the different ways the world has received them. Guillory told former NPR host Lulu Garcia-Navarro that real-life couples have these conversations, so her characters should too.
