Opening in summer 2025, Saucy Books is London’s first bookshop dedicated to romance. Founded by Sarah Maxwell, the Notting Hill spot has a simple mission: giving shelf space to a genre that’s massively popular but often overlooked. The shop is a love letter to romance in all its forms, stocking everyone from Jilly Cooper to BookTok’s latest obsessions. It also hosts author talks, “sip and sign” events and a regular romance book club. From queer love stories and slow-burn novels to fiery romantasy and spicy historical fiction, there’s plenty here to feed your desires.
