New Arrivals

At Shelf Love, we process orders within 2-5 working business days and offer various shipping options:

• Standard (5-10 days)
• Expedited (2-5 days)
• Overnight (1 day for select locations).

Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.

Orders that include a pre-order item will not ship until the pre-order is ready to ship. To avoid delays, we strongly recommend placing pre-order items in a separate order from in-stock books.

We ship books to Canada.

We no longer ship books outside of North America. It is too expensive and we made the difficult decision that we can no longer support overseas shipping. Please use a service like Stackry or Ship7.

Please review the shipping policy for more information.

All Sales Are Final.

We take great care in packaging every item to ensure it arrives safely and in perfect condition. If your item arrives damaged, please contact shop@shelfloveatlanta.com within 2 days of delivery. Include clear photos of the damage. If the damage occurred during shipping (you receive a damaged box), a claim will need to be filed with the carrier.

We will not replace items if damage occurs to the box from shipping as you will need to file a claim with the shipping company.

Orders that include a pre-order item will not ship until the pre-order is ready to ship. To avoid delays, we strongly recommend placing pre-order items in a separate order from in-stock books.

Pre-ordering guarantees your copy before the official release date. All pre-orders will ship once the book arrives.

Release dates are set by the publisher or author and are subject to change. If a release date shifts, we’ll notify you. You’ll receive an email confirmation when your pre-order ships or is ready for in-store pickup.

To see your order status log in or check for the shopping notification that was sent when the package was processed. If you cannot find that email, send us you order number and we will look into it.

At Shelf Love, we proudly specialize in independently published romance novels. The majority of our titles are sourced directly from indie authors, and most are personally signed or have a personally signed bookplate, offering readers a unique and collectible experience. We’re committed to supporting independent voices and providing our customers with books they won’t find on every shelf.

All signed books are indicated on the product page. If it does not indicate signed by the author... chances are it is not an Indie Author or is not on consignment with the shop and will not be signed.
