I can talk. A lot. I was fortunate to be invited to talk — a lot — on two podcasts, a radio show, and YouTube publishing show in the last year. If you’re interested in learning more about my 20-year journey to becoming a published author, the inspiration behind my gender-bending, trope-spinning debut novel, Lush Money, how I got connected to a California vineyard or who’s the biggest supporter in my personal life, check out the interviews below.

Angelina on the Wicked Wallflowers podcast
“We could not be more excited to be joined by Angelina M. Lopez to talk about her outstanding debut, Lush Money! Angelina was one of our earliest listeners when she was still prepublished and now her first book is out in the world! We also chat about Fated Mates, her twenty year path to publication, the upcoming books in her series, and the state of publishing. This is one of Jenny’s favorite books of the year–go read it immediately!”
Angelina on WERA’s Story Hour Radio with Wendy Mann
“A lush conversation with debut author Angelina M. Lopez. Her new novel, Lush Money, features a woman billionaire who wants the perfect baby and a prince who needs money to save his small Spanish country. This romance novel has a unique story and a powerful female protagonist. The story arc conveys both big feelings and big ideas. Our lively conversation veers from wine to characters to upbringing to love. A layered story that resonates.”
Angelina on the KT Literary Podcast
"Today we welcome Angelina M. Lopez the author of LUSH MONEY. I could have talked publishing with her all day! We discuss the importance of writer's groups like RWA, the delicate balance of leaning into vs. subverting tropes, and what it takes to write a Latinx billionare woman.
We also talk about her long, but incredibly fascinating journey to being a published arthur (such a cute origin for that word!) and we fangirl over her agent, Sara Megibow, a little bit."
Lush Money discussed on Not Your Mom’s Romance Book Club
“Ellen and Mom discuss the babies, billionaires, and bonkers-ness of Lush Money by Angelina M. Lopez. Plus, the rules of Love Club and taking back the b-word. Come hang out with us!”
