&lt;p&gt;Romance novels often gloss over childbirth. A few paragraphs of labour, a cry, and then a baby is handed to the glowing mother. &lt;em&gt;Wrapped in Chains&lt;/em&gt; does not take this shortcut. The birth scene is raw, messy, and surprisingly funny—because that is what real labour is like. It is not beautiful. It is not composed. It is pain and sweat and shouting, and the author refuses to sanitise it.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
