Romance Book Swap with Author Paula Lafferty

Join us for a cozy afternoon of community, conversation, and so many romance recs at our Romance Book Swap with Special Guest: Paula Lafferty.

We’ll kick things off with a short 15-minute intro chat from Paula, where she’ll share the inspiration behind her work, her favorite tropes, and a quick peek into her stories. After that, the swap officially opens, bring a gently loved romance book and exchange it for something new-to-you!

RULES!

• Only romance books published within the last 5 years! Older titles tend to go unclaimed, and we want to make sure everyone walks away with something exciting and fairly current!
• Bring One, Take One – Bring at least one ROMANCE book in good condition and swap it for another. Limit of 5 books.
• ROMANCE BOOKS ONLY – This is a romance-exclusive swap! No romance adjacent books.
• Good Condition Only – No torn, stained, or heavily damaged books. A well-loved book is fine, but it should be in readable condition.
• Once you have a ticket, you MUST surrender your book on the table. So only bring the romance books you are READY TO LEAVE.

Paula will have her own dedicated signing table throughout the entire event, so readers can purchase a copy of her book, get it signed, and say hello at any time without missing the fun.

We’ll also have a Paula’s Romance Recs Section featuring a curated selection of her favorite titles to spark conversation and help you discover your next great read.

And for a little extra excitement: Buy a copy of Paula’s book during the event, and you’ll be entered to win our “Paula’s Picks Book Bundle”!

A giveaway featuring 2–3 books hand-selected by Paula herself.

Bring a book, meet fellow romance lovers, discover new favorites, and spend an afternoon with an author who truly loves this genre as much as you do. We can’t wait to see you there!
