❓Red Flags & Roses – FAQs
🔥 What’s in the box?!
Each Red Flags & Roses box includes:
✨ One exclusive special edition of a taboo romance novel
✨ A custom cover, illustrated endpapers, and digitally sprayed edges
✨ A note from the author
✨ And just enough unhinged content to ruin your weekend (in the best way)
💸 How much does it cost?
📚 Book Only – £24.99 + shipping
Your subscription is billed on the 1st of the shipping month and boxes go out every other month.
🧠 What kinds of books do you include?
Only the wrong ones 😇
We focus on taboo, dark, and spicy romance — stepbrothers, priests, age gaps, morally grey men, stalkers, killers, the works. If it’s morally messy and makes you hide your Kindle in public, it’s on our list.
📚 Are the editions exclusive?
Absolutely. Each book is printed just for us with a custom cover, illustrated endpapers, digitally‑sprayed edges and a signed note or art card from the author. You won’t find this version anywhere else.
📊 What’s the 🤍🩶🖤 scale?
Every book comes with a Grayscale Rating — because your mental health matters, and so does choosing the right level of emotional damage.
Here’s the breakdown:
🤍 Grey – Taboo but tame: possessive, obsessive, jealous MMCs, age gaps, step-anything — but with some level of emotional safety.
🩶Dark Grey – Still toxic, but darker: manipulation, public kink, coercion, emotional instability, and relationships you wouldn’t admit to.
🖤 Black – No boundaries: dub-con, stalking, blackmail, degradation, captivity, extreme possessiveness.
🖤 🖤 Pitch Black – Full chaos: non-con, murder, villainous MMCs, and trauma you might need therapy for. No redemption arcs in sight.
You’ll see the emoji on each listing or teaser, so you can read responsibly (or not — we don’t judge).
🧾 Can I skip a box?
· You can’t skip your first box—commitment issues come later.
· After that, skip or cancel any time before the next 1st‑of‑the‑month billing.
· Skip 6 boxes in a row and we may ghost you to keep things sustainable.
📦 When will I be billed and when do boxes ship?
You’ll be billed on the 1st of the shipping month and we aim to ship by the end of that same month.
🌍 Do you ship worldwide?
Yes, book‑only ships everywhere.
Shipping is calculated at checkout. Local customs/VAT (especially in the EU) are the reader’s responsibility.
💔 What’s your refund policy?
Because each box is curated to order, all sales are final once billed. If you need help before a renewal, just email us — we’ll always try to help if we can.
👀 Will I know the book ahead of time?
We’ll tease the tropes, theme, and grayscale level before each drop — plus a full reveal before shipping so you can make an informed (or impulsive) choice.
📍 Where are you based?
We’re proudly based in the North of the UK. Where the tea’s strong, the humour’s dry, and the books are anything but polite.
