What is Mystic Box?

Mystic Box is a fantastic bi-monthly subscription box service that delivers signed exclusive hardcover editions of your favorite dark, mafia, taboo, or erotic romance books AND fun and one-of-a-kind book swag goodies (like super cool stuff you won’t find in other subscription boxes. Trust us. We looked.). You will be charged immediately after subscribing. You will receive an email confirmation of your order and be given access to your Mystic Box account right away.

Subscriptions can be automatically renewed every two months, every six months, or even annually, based on your preference. We also offer gift subscriptions with one-time payment or auto-renew options.

What kind of books will I receive in a Mystic Box?

Each box contains exclusive hardcover editions (you won't find these covers elsewhere) of only dark, mafia, taboo, forbidden, or erotica books in the romance genre. Depending on when you sign up, that season's box or a mystery box. The specific box you receive as a first-time subscriber is subject to availability. 

The Mystery Box is offered in between seasons once the current season's box has sold out. It may contain past season's books and swag.

The bi-monthly Mystic Box is $64.99 plus shipping. Subscription renewals are on the 15th of the month, every two months.

If your delivery is missing, we must be notified within two weeks of receiving your tracking information. If your tracking number shows as delivered, your box is ineligible for a refund or replacement. 

See our Damage Criteria for more info.

Can I cancel my subscriptions?

We are sorry to see you go, but absolutely, you can. But did you know that you can choose to skip a box? We know that money gets tight at times, so we do have the option of skipping a box at a time but no consecutive skips. Any subscription with two consecutive skips will be cancelled.

However, if you still wish to cancel, you can do so at any time by logging into your account on our website. 

How do I keep updated on what’s new and upcoming in my Mystic Box?

We make frequent announcements on our Facebook and Instagram accounts. Please follow us!

How can I become a Featured Author for Mystic Box?

We are always looking for more featured authors for our boxes! Please fill out the interest form on our Featured Authors page. Please note that we require an e-copy of your book to review with your submission to insure that your novel is a good fit for the service.

Please be advised that, even though we’d love to accommodate every author that contacts us, all our spots are limited. Submission of application doesn’t always guarantee a spot and – due to there only being 12 months in a year – we do have a rather extensive waiting list.

How can I become a Vendor for Mystic Box?

We are always on the look-out for new, different, and unique vendors for Mystic Box! Please email us at help@mysticbox.co and we will contact you. Each book is carefully curated and we strive to have unique and one-of-a-kind items for our boxes.

If a swag item is author/book/genre/book lover-related, not something you can find everywhere, or simply the cutest thing ever and MUST be in one of our boxes, we want it!
