What is BeeMine?

BeeMine is a focused, genre-specific event space created exclusively for romance authors and readers. It is where you will find the BeeMine Event, when it is live.

Unlike broader multi-genre events, this is a romance-only space, allowing readers to easily browse and discover things like:

  • Contemporary romance

  • Dark romance

  • Paranormal and fantasy romance

  • Romantic suspense

  • Small-town, enemies-to-lovers, and more

All in one place, for a limited time.

How it works

For one day only, readers will be able to come here explore a curated selection of free romance books. As well as a handful of 99c reads from our curated members.

This creates a high-intent browsing experience, where:

  • Readers are actively looking for new romance books

  • Authors benefit from concentrated visibility

  • Competition is controlled through limited entries

By keeping the event short and focused, we maximise attention and engagement across every book featured.

For readers

If you’re searching for your next romance read, this space offers a streamlined way to discover new authors, trending tropes, and hidden gems across the indie romance space. If you come back for our BeeMine event when it is live, this page will be full of free or discounted quality checked, romance reads.

Whether you’re looking for something sweet, spicy, dark, or emotional, this event brings together a wide range of romance titles in one place—available for a limited time only. One to two weeks prior, we will have the event books available for you to browse and add to your TBR, so that you do not have to rush during the event.

For authors

The BeeMine event is designed for indie romance authors looking to:

  • Promote a book during a limited sale window

  • Reach an engaged audience of romance readers

  • Take part in a focused, high-visibility event

All submissions are reviewed to ensure a consistent level of quality across the event, helping maintain strong reader engagement and better overall performance.

Why a one-day event?

Short-form events create urgency.

By limiting the BeeMine event to a single day, we encourage:

  • Higher reader engagement

  • Faster decision-making

  • Increased visibility per book

This ensures the event remains impactful, rather than diluted across multiple days. Basically we’re hoping it helps romance authors and readers get more.

  • Don’t miss it

BeeMine is a limited-access, high-demand event, designed to deliver a focused promotional experience for both authors and readers.

Whether you’re here to discover your next favourite romance book or promote your own, this is one event you won’t want to miss.
