"I’m honored to be sitting down with Krista Purnell—a Black romance novelist who puts Black women front and center in stories of love, intimacy, and devotion. Through her platform GiveThemRomance.com, she is creating the kind of love stories that celebrate us in all our sensual, complex, and powerful glory. Because, yes—Black women love hard, we love soft, we love fully, and we deserve to see that reflected in our narratives."

"In this episode, we’re diving deep into the representation of Black women in romance, dismantling outdated tropes, and talking about why Black Love is revolutionary. What does it mean to craft stories that give Black women the romance they truly desire? How do we unlearn the limiting narratives we’ve been fed about our worthiness in love? And why is it so important to see ourselves in stories that celebrate our softness, passion, and joy?"
