It started with a book club

United by a love of romance, fantasy and LGBTQIA+ stories we found that as our love of stories grew, so did our desire to share our discoveries with others.

Swoon was conceived one warm summer afternoon, on a comfy couch with a glass of wine and a board of cheese. An idea that initially sparked laughter but soon beckoned to be followed down a rabbit hole into a brand new world.

From our book club roots to our growing vibrant book community, we’re on a mission to dive deep into the joy that comes about from a great love story and spread the love of romance literature one swoon-worthy story at a time.
