I want to thank Melody and Jenny for inviting me to be on the show and for sharing the episode with me here. Don’t recommend listening with your kids in the car, unless you have headphones in, in which case drive carefully, and I want to be clear, this is a recap of the second half of the book, so spoilers ahoy. We are going to start right in the middle of the book and recap to the end, so I want to let y’all know, this episode is extremely Not Safe For Work. Part one with me, Melody, and Jenny is over at Bonkers Romance, so hello and welcome, Bonkers Romance listeners I’m so happy to have you here with us today. I am Sarah Wendell, and this is part two of the Bonkers Romance recap of A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor by Kathryn Moon.

Sarah Wendell: Hello and welcome to a very special episode of Smart Podcast, Trashy Books. Picnic in Someday Valley by Jodi Thomas is available now wherever books are sold. With the blend of romance and women’s fiction, Picnic in Someday Valley is perfect for book clubs and provides a lot to discuss. But no matter what the data determines, one conclusion seems inescapable: love follows its own rules… Friends, neighbors…the whole town has become involved. Soon enough, their project, “The Chemistry of Mating,” is gaining notoriety. She’s chatty, spontaneous, and bubbly, and before Benjamin realizes what happened, she’s talked him into collaborating on a research project. His colleague, Virginia Clark, is not one for routines.

Eventually, he’ll retire to putter around in his garden.

He’ll continue teaching chemistry in his small college, and spend his free time biking through the valley. New York Times bestselling author Jodi Thomas welcomes readers back to the picturesque Texas valley that cradles the town of Honey Creek…īenjamin Monroe is pretty sure how his life will play out.
