Helpless or Helpful with Jessica Knoll

Kail sits down with New York Times bestselling author Jessica Knoll for a powerful conversation about her new novel Helpless, the rise of dark romance, and why women are drawn to stories that explore fear, control, survival, and power. Jessica opens up about the real-life experience behind Luckiest Girl Alive, the healing that came from telling her story, and how the Netflix adaptation helped spark important conversations around consent.

They also discuss reality TV, complicated female friendships, book-to-screen adaptations, the pressure of writing after success, criticism, AI in publishing, audiobooks, Kindle vs. physical books, and why Jessica is still chasing dark, unforgettable stories.
