Send Me Swooning is a monthly box that sends a sexy, sassy, literary romance novel that is published within 45 days of shipping along with elegant gifts curated for the romance reader. Subscribers can follow them on Spotify for a new playlist each month that matches the monthly theme. They also have a Goodreads Group where readers can discuss the books. Send Me Swooning costs $36.99 a month with a $7.95 shipping charge.
The information letter describes the items and why they are included in the box. The May theme is ‘Our Favorite Things.’ Pink is their favorite color which goes well with the idea of romance and swooning.
Here are the items for the Send Me Swooning May Subscription Box. I decided to try out Send Me Swooning when I saw it was part of the CrateJoy Flash Sale which is now over. The 50% off discounted price helped offset the shipping price for the six-month subscription. I was curious about the box and was pleasantly surprised that I did not have to wait until June for my first box!
Making Waves by Laura Moore ($10.87 on Amazon, publish date April 25, 2017) is the first book in the new contemporary romance Beach Lane series.
As the responsible daughter of an irresponsible socialite, Dakota Hale has plenty of practice catering to the whims of the rich and spoiled—and she’s turned that experience into a thriving concierge business serving the needs of the Hamptons’ wealthy elite. But anytime the drama on land gets too outrageous, Dakota finds calm surfing the Atlantic waves. But when sexy mogul Max Carr hires her, it rocks her balance in a big way.
Max works hard, but he’s never had to put any effort into winning over a woman—until now. With her stunning beauty and keen intelligence, Dakota is worth the effort. But it’s plain she has no interest in a casual fling, and that’s all Max, with his grief-stricken heart, can offer. But one fraught night changes everything, with consequences neither Dakota nor Max anticipated. Now they must navigate the rough waters of society gossip and devastating secrets that threaten their fragile relationship. If they can trust in the strength of their growing feelings, they’ll find that the dreams they’ve been chasing are close enough to embrace . . . together.
I can’t wait to begin reading this book later this month!
Nothing says romance like a heart! The adorable Red Beaded Heart Coin Purse by Tiana Designs (appx $7.50) is made exclusively for Send Me Swooning. The coin purse has a pink inner liner and a solid zipper. It’s a well-made bag. I am going to use it to store my eye drops in my tote bag.
I don’t normally like pompoms, but the bright pink color is appealing. The Fluffy Pompom Key Ring (appx $7.00) is a fun way to keep track of your keys in your beach bag. I may use it for that if my cats don’t destroy it first!
I can not resist a romantic floral chiffon bangle. The Floral Bangle (appx $10.00) will look great with a flowing summer dress. Send Me Swooning requested feedback on having jewelry in the subscription box. I am all for casual romantic jewelry.
We received a second book this month! Seized by Seduction by Brenda Jackson ($6.47 on Amazon, Publish Date April 25, 2017) is the second book in The Protectors Series. According to Amazon
From the moment his eyes meet hers across the crime-scene tape, ex-con turned bodyguard Quasar Patterson knows he has to see the mysterious Dr. Randi Fuller again. She’s a renowned psychic investigator who can foresee danger for others, but not for herself. That makes Quasar doubly determined to watch over her—the closer, the better—as she’s drawn into a dangerous gang rivalry.
Both her psychic gift and their blinding chemistry tell Randi that she and Quasar are fated to be entwined. Even as they surrender to the heat between them, there’s no guarantee of a happily-ever-after now that an enemy has her in his sights. And claiming a future will take more than Quasar’s strength and skill. If he can’t risk the heart he’s always held in check, they’ll both lose for good…
Romance and suspense in the same book sounds good to me!
We also received a special gift. The Black Charcoal Soap by MellyMel Creations (3.8 oz, appx $5.00) lathers well and is moisturizing. Charcoal soap can help reduce acne and pore size. It is excellent for sensitive skin. Send Me Swooning is working with Melly Mel Creations to create a special collaborative soap for a future box.
I can’t wait to start reading my May Books! The publishing dates are within the 45 days of shipping as promised. The gifts had a great spring romantic vibe to them. I gave the floral bangle to my sister as a thank you for modeling in the photo. I am going to keep the coin purse and fluffy keychain in my beach bag. We can always use more soap in my household! Value conscious readers should be aware that I had to estimate prices on everything except for the books. I based the item values on similar items listed on Etsy. I am happy with my items at the price I paid which is 50% off the regular subscription price. I can’t wait to see the June box!
