Welcome to High Stakes—where big stories meet bigger stakes.

In each episode, I chat with bestselling to debut authors across all genres—thrillers, mysteries, suspense, romance, fantasy, sci-fi, horror, YA, book club fiction, and more—about the turning points that change everything. We dig into what’s truly on the line for their characters, the craft choices that sharpen tension, and the twists and emotional punches that keep us hooked.

New episodes drop weekly.
