After Sons of Anarchy ended, the MC romance genre did grow exponentially, including books like Reaper’s Property by Joanna Wylde (2016).

Jen’s love of Russian mobsters started with Viggo Mortensen in Eastern Promises. We did a deep dive episode on Kresley Cole's The Master in Season 1. It is MMA fighting, which stands for Mixed Martial Arts.

Jen’s list is Ivan and an old Loveswept by Barbara Boswell called Sharing Secrets - the hero’s name is Rad Ramsey!
