At SBTB HQ, we go through a lot of books and we want to share the wealth with our lovely community! We’re strapping on our headbands and rolling up our sleeves to do some bookish spring cleaning.
We have seven boxes of brand new books to giveaway! Yes, seven!
We can promise the books included are absolutely new, unread, and printed on paper. We can also promise there will be at least five books, possibly more, in each box.
There may be a mix of formats and sub-genres, but most if not all will be romance or with Strong Romantic Elements!
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the titles included:
- Counting on a Countess by Eva Leigh
- Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren
- The Beautiful Ones by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
- Hurts to Love You by Alisha Rai
- and many many more!
Genres include contemporary, historical, romantic suspense, thrillers, and paranormal romance, too. While we hope the box you receive contains a subgenre or author you enjoy, we also have our fingers crossed that you’ll love trying something new. And as always, our mission statement is to share the love and share the romance.

Dream box of books would be advance copies of books by diverse and exciting authors like Alyssa Cole, Courtney Milan, and Rose Lerner.
New or old, a box full or one at a time, all books are good. Especially historical. Fingers crossed that I will be able to refill the TBR pile in time for the lazy days of summer.
My dream box would be a mishmash of romance genres that is well-written with fun, smart characters, and CONSENT CONSENT CONSENT. Nothing turns me off faster than romance that deals badly with issues of consent and agency.
Honestly my dream box of books would be books! First editions or signed books would be an awesome plus. My favorite genres are contemporary and historical, and there’s so much I haven’t read.
My dream box would have Jayne Ann Krentz’s old impossible to get MacFaddens as Jayne Bentley because I have every single other book she EVER published under EVERY pseudonym besides 4 of those but since that’s less likely than me hitting the lottery….. probably some really interesting new to me authors. I discovered Rose Lerner and Talia Hibbert here and really like them and have been meaning to try Alisha Rai.
New books that I haven’t read… a feat indeed!
I would definitely choose a dream box of signed books from my favorite contemporary and historical romance series. I have tons of favorites so my dream box would be like a birthday and Christmas present all wrapped up in one! And I would love to add them to my keepers shelves since there’s nothing quite like the feel of print books! Thank you for the chance to win!
My dream box of books would contain just about anything. I read just about any genre, and am always open to new-to-me authors!!
My dream would be a bunch of books I haven’t read before! I read so much that I’m always looking for new favorites!
Oh, any mix of books would be super to page through and give a try. A couple with awesome covers would be cool. Although I am not opposed to a cover to snark over now that I know that’s a thing. In fact, this wonderful community has taught me a thing or two or three about lots of interesting things, from cover snark to antique cookery!
A box of books I never would have picked up myself but wind up loving!
My dream box of books would have some lovely romance, fantasy, historical mystery and historical fiction – and would all be those lovely floppy paperbacks with soft covers…heaven!
I’m a moody reader. I’ve been in a rut for 3 months due to this issue.
I get stuck in a genre or subgenre…feel like that is the best book genre in the world…and won’t read anything different. Most of my choices reflect whatever is going on personally (insert moodiness).
I need a big box of books that I didn’t pick out is the only requirement I have.. I don’t care what’s in it, it will get rid of my rut. I want to break out and discover something new.
Oh man, if I had a magic box of books that I’d never heard of before but loved, that would be amazing. I’m just getting into romance, so I’m looking for new reads!
My dream box of books would include authors that are new to me. I like mysteries, suspense, cozy mysteries and Christian books — just to mention a few!
My dream box would be filled with new-to-me books. Part of the joy I get from my favorites or classics is looking for great editions of them as I browse used book stores, etc. I enjoy that quest, but souls live to receive a curated mix of oils that I don’t have to choose or think about before I get it 🙂
My dream box would be a collection of historical/fantasy romance from amazing writers with large back catalogues for me to explore after!!
My box would be full of unpublished novels by Katherine Addison in her Goblin Emperor universe…I need more!!!
I think my dream box would have a range of books by new-to-me diverse authors as I’m trying to actively seek out different voices and different stories to make my life and reading richer!
My dream box of books would contain all of my favorite comfort reads plus a bottle of wine and magical powers of several hours of uninterrupted reading time.
A mix of favorites and new authors would be ideal, with a first edition mixed in.
My dream box would have urban fantasy and cozy mysteries.
My dream box of books would be one with a bunch from my TBR list!!
My dream box would be filled with my favorite LJ Smith books ( Vampire Diaries- the original series and the Forbidden Game series) and R.L Stine Fear Street books. Those books made me love reading!
I want a box of books I never would have picked out for myself, because those books always broaden my horizons and I end up liking them more often than not anyway!
My dream box of books would be the first editions of all the classics I never was forced to read in high school, or in college despite being an English major! As a history and antique buff, the first editions would be a double gift, with that trademark scent of old book, lol. My TBR bucket list is honestly shameful as an avid reader of romance, so I don’t want to name actual titles. Since I tend to stick to PNR and UF, some historical, comedic, and adult CR (no teens as found in YA or NA at my age please) titles would be fabulous too. Thanks for the opportunity to enter this giveaway!
My dream book box: independent heroines, banter, mystery, amazing sex (can be in zero g).
My dream box would be a mix of new to me authors or books and some that I am familiar with or read, about 80% new and 20% familiar. I have very few physical books but a goodly amount on my Kindle. I miss physical books. The look of them, the way they smell, caressing their spines and turning the pages and then dropping one on your face while you are reading it.
My dream box of books would include a variety of genres containing new-to-me books (and authors!) that are perfectly suited to my tastes. Whenever I was in a reading slump I could just pull a book out of my box!
My dream box would contain contemporary or historical romances with female characters who build successful businesses!
