Bared to You by Sylvia Day (Part 1) | 373.1 Mar 10, 2025

Show notes

Hey HBs! This week Mel has a thesis statement and she's not afraid to use it! But also, it's so tired in here as the pals recap BARED TO YOU by Sylvia Day. It's the first of FIVE books following the same couple and it's very reminiscent of the 50 Shades franchise. This book is BONKERS and we had a reluctant good time.

Content Warning for discussions of stalking, childhood sexual abuse, miscarriage, tricky parental relationships, and vulgar displays of wealth (lol).
