about book beau affair
Welcome to Book Beau Affair — an Iowa-based mobile romance booktique celebrating love stories in all their forms.
Romance has been called a “guilty pleasure” for far too long. And we don’t do guilt here. Whether you love small-town swoon, morally gray heroes or fated-mate romantasy, your bookshelf deserves to be celebrated.
Whether your shelves are filled with small-town sweethearts, morally gray heroes, billionaire drama, or fated-mate romantasy, loving love stories is something to celebrate — not hide.
At Book Beau Affair, our mission is simple: Celebrate romance without apology.
Because romance isn’t “less than” other genres. It’s powerful, emotional, escapist, and sometimes a little spicy — exactly the way we like it.

Hi, I’m Steph, the reader behind Book Beau Affair.
I’m a mom of three (19, 16, and 9), married to who might be the biggest Duke fan in the state of Iowa, and the proud human of an 11-year-old dog and an 8-year-old cat.
By day, I work full-time as a communications consultant. But if I’m being honest? I’d much rather be reading.
I’m a millennial fueled by iced coffee and energy drinks, and good stories. I will never say no to pizza or tacos
I’m also a little nerdy. I’m obsessed with Marvel (especially Iron Man), enjoy video games, and absolutely love sharks. I have 11 tattoos and plans for more.
I’m a Kindle girly but I will read via ANY format. I buy physical copies for the trophy on my bookshelf. I have a tendency to favor ramantasy and/or dark romance. But let’s be honest, I’ll read anything that has that smutty smut!
