Dirty Words and Daring Women: Exploring Historical Romance with Evie Dunmore

  • Summary

  • The language of love is forever changing, but a constant theme throughout time has been the use of sexualized words to label women, shame them, and take away their power. Modern romance novels are one of the ways women are taking back the language of sex, and flipping words and behaviors - once deemed inappropriate - into scenes of empowerment and independence. Evie Dunmore, historical romance author of USA TODAY bestseller Bringing Down the Duke and the League of Extraordinary Women series, joins us to talk about how she learned to write strong female characters who balance standing up for themselves while falling in love.
