Ep 251: Warrior Woman in Romance
On this episode of Buzzing About Romance, Leah and Amanda join Becky to talk about the Female Archetype- The Warrior. From special ops to small-town sheriffs, we’re asking why so few warrior heroines take center stage in romantic suspense—and why it’s time for that to change. Plus, in honor of the 95th anniversary of Nancy Drew, we’re celebrating one of fiction’s first fearless girls who proved that strength, brains, and heart could coexist. Join us as we unpack the evolution of the warrior woman in romance—and share some must-read recommendations for when you need a heroine who’s ready to fight for more than just love.
