Donation protected
Hi there, I'm Liz Harney, and I'm asking you to support West Michigan's First Romance Bookstore, Lovebound Books & Gifts.

We’re excited to open our doors in Grand Rapids, MI to become the first romance bookstore in West Michigan! However, we need your help. Set to open our doors in 2024, we are working diligently to cover our startup costs including building inventory, securing a brick and mortar storefront, furniture, and more. Lovebound isn't just about books; it's about creating a safe space where all love stories are celebrated and we believe in the immense power of our community.

From diverse authors and inclusive narratives to LGBTQ+ representation, our shelves will reflect the rich tapestry of human experiences. But Lovebound is more than just a bookstore—it's a vibrant community space where romance enthusiasts can connect, share their love for literature, and celebrate their passions. From author signings and book clubs to special events that celebrate romance literature and its fans, Lovebound Books & Gifts is more than just a store; it's a destination for those who live and breathe romance.
