Love is in the air! Gramercy Books invites you to join us on Bookstore Romance Day as we celebrate Romance fiction, its writers and readers.

This event is free. No registration is required!

During this celebration, we will bring back our popular Blind-Date-with-a-Book! Select a wrapped package based only on its brief description and fall in love with a new book.

Bookseller Romance recommendations are 20% off! Our booksellers have selected their absolute favorites, on sale just for Bookstore Romance Day.

Finally, from 1 to 3 pm, enjoy book signings with Central Ohio Romance authors!

Noon-1 pm: Jen Devon (Right Where We Left Us) and Jason Dutton (How to Dance)

1-2pm: Kerry Winfrey (Faking Christmas) and Libby Kay (Faking the Fall)

2-3pm: Kristy Boyce (Dungeons & Drama) and Lindsey Lanza (Not Safe for Work)

Jen Devon, author of Bend Toward the Sun, is a lifelong lover of love stories. She writes vivid, cinematic romances about imperfect people finding their perfect match. A former ecology academic and adjunct professor, she now works in the Internet tech industry and dreams of writing full-time. An avid gardener, photographer, gamer, and unapologetic nerd, she’s also a mom of five (three kids, two rescue mutts) and lives in central Ohio with her engineer husband.

Jason B. Dutton lives in Columbus, Ohio, where he does all he can to nurture his lifelong love of song, dance, and books. When he’s not writing, Jason loves to watch and passionately discuss movies, particularly anything involving Spider-Man. He can often be found singing, whether bystanders want him to or not, and as a writer with cerebral palsy, he delights in finding the humor, beauty, and possibility in life with a disability.

Kerry Winfrey writes romantic comedies for adults and teens. She is the author of Faking Christmas, Waiting for Tom Hanks, Not Like the Movies, Very Sincerely Yours, and Just Another Love Song, as well as two young adult novels. She lives with her family in the middle of Ohio.

Libby Kay lives in Columbus with her husband. She loves reading romance novels of any kind. Stories of people falling in love nourish her soul. When not surrounded by books, Libby can be found baking in her kitchen, binging true crime shows, or traveling with her husband. Libby co-hosts the Romance Roundup podcast with Liz Donatelli. Together they share their favorite romance books, authors, and tropes, as well as interview fellow romance authors and readers.

Kristy Boyce is the indie bestselling author of Dungeons and Drama, Hot British Boyfriend, and Hot Dutch Daydream. She played her first role-playing game in high school and has been friends with that group ever since. In fact, she even married the DM. Nowadays, she teaches psychology as a senior lecturer at The Ohio State University. When she’s not spending time with her husband and son, she’s usually writing, reading, or watching happy reality TV. Kristy lives in Pickerington, Ohio.

Lindsey Lanza is a book lover and romance author from Columbus, Ohio. She is a tech start-up enthusiast by day, a voracious reader by early mornings, nights, and weekends, and now writes love stories when she gets a spare moment. You can most often find her laughing about nothing with her husband, Erik, perusing a dessert menu, consulting clients on Zoom calls, or obsessing over her Sheepadoodle, Wally.
