Come and join us for a relaxed coffee morning meet-up to celebrate all things romance — from swoon-worthy novels to behind-the-scenes publishing chat.
Hosted at Waterstones Café Bournemouth Arcade, this informal gathering is open to romance writers, readers, booksellers, editors, agents, and anyone who loves a good love story. Whether you're published, pre-published, or just passionate about the genre, this is a chance to connect over coffee and conversation.
💘 What to expect:
- A friendly, informal hour of chatting with fellow romance fans
- A mix of writers, readers, and publishing professionals
- A cosy café setting inside Waterstones
- No speeches, panels or pressure — just coffee and community!
