Tempt started as a home for romance audiobooks. Now it’s the place where romance audio lives: books, stories, and the conversations around them. We’re looking for the podcasters who belong here.
You’ve been talking about romance, relationships, or steamy books for months, maybe years. The content is good. The listeners who find you, love you. But growth on the major podcast platforms is slow, algorithmic, and exhausting. You want to reach the people who are already paying for exactly this kind of audio.
An episode got flagged. A show got restricted. You self-censored something because you weren’t sure what the algorithm would do with it. You make adult content for adults, and you’re tired of platforms that treat steamy as a problem to manage. You need a home that doesn’t.
You’re making serialized romance fiction, but distributing it in podcast apps where it lives next to true crime and business news. Your listeners are audiobook people. They want to keep the story going after the book ends. You want to be where they already are, not where they have to find you.
You talk about books, relationships, feminine wellness, or LGBTQ+ love, adjacent territory, deeply overlapping audience. Your listeners and Tempt’s subscribers are probably the same people. You want discovery without cold ads, organic reach through a platform that’s already home to your kind of listener.
Recognise yourself in any of these?
Tell us about your podcastBuilt for audio creators who make content the big platforms were never designed to host.
200K paying subscribers who opened their wallets specifically for steamy romance content. You don’t explain the genre, you don’t educate the listener, you don’t fight the algorithm. You show up where they already are.
Mature content isn’t just allowed here, it’s the whole reason listeners subscribe. Your episodes won’t be shadow-banned, restricted, or quietly downranked for being explicit. And no part of your content will ever be scraped to train AI. That’s in the agreement you sign.
This is about reach, not ad reads. We feature episodes of your show inside Tempt and recommend them to subscribers already obsessed with romance audio. New listeners who discover you here and follow you back to wherever else you publish. Growth is the offer.
On Tempt, your podcast lives in the same catalog as the romance audiobooks your listeners just finished. That’s the recommendation context that podcast apps can’t offer. A listener finishes a steamy novel. Your show is the natural next thing.
Adding Tempt doesn’t mean leaving anywhere. Keep your existing platforms. We’re one more channel, not a replacement. Clear agreement you can read and sign yourself, no legalese runaround, no requirement to take your show down anywhere else.

With Tempt
It depends on whether your audience overlaps with ours, not whether your content is labeled "romance." Podcasts about books, relationships, femininity, sexuality, LGBTQ+ love, or steamy wellness have found home here. If your listeners are the kind of people who pay for audiobooks, they’re already our subscribers. Tell us about your show and we’ll figure it out together.
No. Adding Tempt doesn’t require taking your show down anywhere. You keep your current platforms (whatever you distribute on today) and Tempt is one more channel, not an exclusive home. Our partnership doesn’t force you to choose.
Right now it’s simple: we feature select episodes of your show to grow your audience, and Tempt gets fresh romance audio our listeners love. We’re focused on reach for both sides first. Anything beyond that we’ll walk through with you directly over email, once we see what we’re building together.
No, and it’s written into the agreement you sign, not buried in a policy update we could quietly change later. No part of your audio will be used to train, fine-tune, or evaluate any AI model. It’s your content, your voice, your work. That’s how it stays.
We’re a small team too. That’s exactly why we read every email ourselves and move fast. Whether you’re 50 episodes in or 500, if your content fits and your audience overlaps with ours, we want to hear from you. Earlier-stage creators often end up with the most interesting partnerships.
What you’ve got, what you’re working on. We get back within a few days. We’re a small team, and we read every email.

Podcasters have been making the conversation around romance audio for years: book talk, relationship advice, audio fiction, steamy storytelling. We built the streaming app where that conversation belongs, right next to the audiobooks that started it.
The catalog your podcast would live alongside, and the subscribers already here for it.
