Lace up, freaky little strumpets, because we're going back to college and not all of us survived the reunion. This week it's The Deal by Elle Kennedy: a tutoring arrangement, a hockey captain with walls, and a slow burn Elisa loved so much she read it twice. We get into puck bunny etymology, Lindsay's highlighter-rage count on "stripper tits," Jess's 30-second frat boy, and a lick that somehow ends in a cannibalism rabbit hole. We also hold a very honest vote on the Prime Video adaptation. Grab your drink, get comfortable, and meet us Between the Folds.

This week on Between the Folds, your three favorite freaky little strumpets are lacing up their skates for Pucking Wild by Emily Rath — book two in the Jacksonville Rays series. A 33-year-old attorney, a 22-year-old hockey boy with surprising emotional range, and one morally bankrupt ex-husband who refuses to sign the damn papers walk into a reverse age gap romance... and it's practically a Hallmark movie. With pegging. We've got feelings about the slow burn (too slow), the character inconsistency (too much), and the butt plug scene (just right). Also: a full education on spit roasting, the Eiffel Tower, and strapless strap-ons, courtesy of Elisa's Half-Cocked Internet Research. Plus Jess has a divorce-era personal breakthrough, Lindsay is firmly Team Jake, and we all agree: puppy and ma'am are NOT sexy pet names. Buckle up, strumpets.
