While we should never judge a book by it's cover, sometimes we can get a laugh from a cover design. In this instance, the female lead has three arms.

Don't worry, we didn't write on the actual book! 😆

Happy Bookstore Romance Day- a day designed to give independent bookstores an opportunity to celebrate Romance fiction!
Let's be honest though. We always have an enormous selection of new and used romance titles in stock, and it's ever-changing.
Romance not your thing? We also have you covered!
