Get Lit With Lianna: The Podcast

Today I’m joined by romance author, Chloe Liese, who makes her traditional publishing debut with her romcom re-telling of Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing", one of Amazon's top romances, "Two Wrongs Make a Right".
Many people know Chloe as the author of the beloved Bergman Brothers series, which she has been self-publishing over the last few years. Today, I sit down with Chloe to chat about this new storyworld she's created, what it's like to shift from self-publishing to traditional publishing, and of course dive into the major themes of this romance book.
We get into everything from the importance of creating neurodivergent main characters in romance books, the inspiration behind this story in particular, and what Chloe is working on next!

Today I’m joined by RITA award-winning and bestselling romance author, Kennedy Ryan, who wrote the new romance/women's fiction love story, "Before I Let Go".
Kennedy has been one of my favourite authors for the longest time, so having the chance to sit down with her to chat about some of her most beloved stories was such an honour.
This conversation is jam packed! We get to chatting about Kennedy's fan favourite series that are currently in pre-production for TV & film adaptations, her writing background, and then of course the themes and key moments from her latest release, "Before I Let Go".
This book is easily one of my favourites of the year, so it was such a joy to speak with Kennedy about the difficult themes and topics covered in this book, and to learn how much work and research went into perfecting this story to ensure it was told with authenticity and credibility.
This episode will definitely go down as one of the more special chats I've recorded yet, so I hope you all enjoy and learn something new from this conversation. For this episode in particular, please note the content warnings below.
CW: stillbirth, death of a parent figure, divorce, grief, depression

Today I’m joined by New York Times best-selling romance author, Allison Winn Scotch, who wrote the new romance, “The Rewind”!

Allison is widely known for her novels “The Theory of Opposites”, “Time of My Life”, as well as “Between Me and You”, which is currently in development as a podcast/audio series for audible, produced by the one and only Kerry Washington! In fact, in this episode, Allison also shared with me (early!) that “The Rewind” is in development at Netflix!! We love to see all these adaptations!

I loved getting to chat with Allison about her career, details about my favourite moments from “The Rewind”, and what she’s working on next. This was such a fun episode to record and I hope you all love getting to know Allison more intimately from this chat!

Today I’m joined by Canadian romance author, Jackie Lau who wrote the new romcom “The Stand-Up Groomsman”.

You may recognize Jackie as the author of “Donut Fall In Love”, a sweet romcom that made its debut last year. Though this story is a continuation of her previous work, both can be read as stand alones, which I particularly love.

This book was so much fun for me, as it incorporated my love for romance novels and stand-up comedy! Jackie and I chatted about the LGBTQ and Asian representation in this story, how she managed to write mini stand-up sets within the text of this book, why she loves reading and writing romance, and more!

Today I’m joined by one of today’s leading LGBTQ2+ romance authors, Alison Cochrun, who wrote the new holiday romcom “Kiss Her Once For Me”.

Alison’s debut novel, “The Charm Offensive”, made waves upon its debut, as one of the top M/M romances released that year. In her sophomore novel, Cochrun has taken a spin on the beloved 90s romcom “While You Were Sleeping”, and completely transformed the story into one of the best holiday romances I’ve read this year!

We had the best time chatting about the importance of telling diverse stories with dynamic and authentic lead characters, what Alison’s favourite romance tropes are to read and write, some of my favourite moments from this book (including the ADORBS meet cute!), and what she’s working on next!
