Karyne (00:00:07) – Hi fantasy readers. This is Karyne Norton, your fellow book binger, and you are listening to the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast where you can test out a new fantasy story every single week to find your next favorite author.

Over the next two weeks, you get to hear a young adult romance with phoenixes. It’s written by C.K. Beggan. She writes portal, romantic, and epic fantasy for new adults and young adults, and romantic fantasy and paranormal romance for adults. When Cait isn’t writing, you’ll find her crafting and going on little adventures with her intrepid dog. You may even catch her swooning over her latest Korean or Chinese drama obsession.

Paeter and I will both be narrating today. Be sure to stick around to the end or check out today’s show notes to see where you can find more from the author. For now, please enjoy To Thaw a Phoenix Heart: Part 1, by C.K. Beggan.

Karyne and Paeter (00:01:09) –  To Thaw a Phoenix Heart: Part 1 is read by Karyne Norton and Paeter Frandsen. Due to copyright, the full transcript of the story cannot be included here. 

Karyne (00:51:05) – I hope you enjoyed listening to To Thaw a Phoenix Heart: Part 1, by C.K. Beggan, narrated by Karyne Norton and Paeter Frandsen of Christian Geek Central. If you want to read more by Cait, go to ckbeggan.com to find more of her books. She does write both spicy and sweet romance, but clearly labels them, so be sure to keep your preferred heat level in mind when checking out her books.

If you enjoyed listening to Paeter narrate the story, you might also enjoy listening to his audio dramas at spiritblade.com or his podcast, Christian Geek Central, where he discusses movies, video games, and all things enjoyed by self-proclaimed geeks from a Christian worldview. As always, I will have links for all those sites in the show notes.

I love getting emails from you all telling me which episodes are your favorite and how you started listening. It keeps me encouraged and motivates me to keep making more episodes when it can sometimes feel like I’m just throwing these episodes into the internet void. I’m also especially thankful for the kind reviews that help people find the podcast. Queen Bee TX said, “Love this podcast. A great alternative to listening to long books. Good for in-between books, limited time, a change of pace, or simply enjoyment. Lots of variety.” I’m glad you’ve found this podcast to be so helpful, Queen Bee TX, and I hope others do too. If you’ve enjoyed the podcast but haven’t had a chance to leave a review, I hope you’ll take a few minutes out of your day to do so. I’ll have instructions in the show notes.

Thank you all for listening, and happy reading.
