Rooted by friendship and a love for spicy books, Sarah and Jess opened Pages & Peonies in the summer of 2025. They dreamt of creating a cozy & inclusive romance-focused bookstore where book lovers would want to spend their time & get lost in a good book, so they quit their day jobs to bring this shared vision to life. Now, they welcome everyone to visit the shop and discover their next favorite (likely smutty) read.

Shoppers can expect to find titles by indie and traditionally published authors, hand-crafted gifts & goods from incredible local artists, the most beautiful fresh bouquets, and good vibes all around. Jess & Sarah invite you to stop in, make new connections, and create fun memories over good books. They host events monthly, including (but not limited to) author signings, collaborations with other local small businesses, and even a Smutty Pages Book Club! 

They are so grateful to be a part of the romance-reading community - you'll find them nestled in their store, probably reading behind the counter! Feel free to stop in and say hello - they'd love to help you find your next great read!
