About this episode
In this charming and laughter-filled episode of The Christian Romance Podcast, Kelly chats with award-nominated author Mollie Rushmeyer about her newest rom-com release, The Rules of Falling for You. With a heart for Regency romance and a love for whimsical storytelling, Mollie shares how her real-life obsessions with Jane Austen, list-making, and her cousin’s matchmaking escapades all inspired this delightful novel.
Together, they dive into the themes of control, trust in God, and how the unexpected often leads to the best kind of love stories. If you’re into best friend’s brother tropes, grumpy/sunshine dynamics, or anything involving a Regency-themed singles retreat (yes, really!), this is the episode for you. Plus, you’ll hear the hilarious inspiration behind one of the book’s funniest scenes (spoiler-free, promise)!
