Ottawa (ON) — Ottawa Public Library invites romance readers and book lovers to a memorable evening celebrating stories of love, creativity, and connection. On Thursday, March 26 at 7 pm, join us at Bayview Yards (7 Bayview Station) for Behind the Happily Ever Afters: A Romance Author Panel featuring three acclaimed romance authors: K.A. Tucker, Roselle Lim, and Ruby Barrett. The discussion will be moderated by Jennifer Whiteford, an author and romance enthusiast.

This lively conversation will explore each author’s writing process, inspirations, and insights into the ever-evolving romance genre. Attendees will also have the chance to discover new titles, meet local writers, and learn more about OPL’s diverse and growing romance collection.

Following the panel, guests are invited to participate in a bracelet, key chain or bag charm do-it-yourself activity. A fun and creative way to connect with fellow romance readers and celebrate themes of love, storytelling, and community.

This event highlights OPL’s commitment to promoting literacy, strengthening relationships with local authors, and fostering vibrant community spaces where readers can come together and share their passions.

Library clients and all Ottawa residents are encouraged to connect with authors, fellow readers, and the library community to celebrate the joy of reading romance!
