WELCOME, GROWN WOMAN. YOUR ROMANCE ERA DIDN’T EXPIRE.

If you are 35+ and have ever opened a romance novel and thought, “Why is she twenty-six and suddenly teaching a billionaire how to feel?”…girl, we need to talk. 😂

Welcome to The Heat Index — The Erogenous Woman Reader Group.

This is the place for women who want heroines who have actually lived.

Women with careers. History. Exes. Kids. Ambition. Baggage. Wisdom. Bad decisions. Good decisions. Stretch marks. Gray hairs. Hot flashes. Cold shoulders. Big dreams.

And yes…

Sexual desire.

Because turning 35 did not turn off the damn lights.

We believe grown women deserve romance where age isn't something the heroine has to apologize for.

Here, we're talking chemistry, emotional intimacy, hilarious mistakes, complicated relationships, second chances, career women, forbidden attraction, age gaps, enemies-to-lovers, and the delicious chaos that happens when two fully grown adults realize:

“Oh, hell. I actually like this person.”

Expect excerpts.

Character reveals.

Trope debates.

Hot takes.

Reader games.

Facebook Lives.

ARC opportunities.

And plenty of moments where we're collectively yelling:

“GIRL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”

So introduce yourself below.

Tell us your age range, favorite romance trope, and the trope you swear you'll never read.

Welcome to the heat.

We're just getting started.
