Description

We are looking for a marriage of the romance genre (think Harlequin, Silhouette, MIRA) with a much higher degree of eroticism. We want all of the emotional impact, all the angst, all the character development, and all the conflict you would find in any traditional romance novel. But we want it to go several steps beyond the normal romance when it comes to sexual content and eroticism.

Stories may include any of the tried and true plot elements that have worked in romance novels for years. For example, authors can use secret baby, forced marriage, marriage of convenience, revenge, etc. as elements of their stories.

While we want a higher level of eroticism and a greater diversity of sexual activity in our books we do not want books that sacrifice the romance's story line in an effort to force a quick sexual pace. We believe the specific story and the make-up of the characters should decide the placement and frequency of sex scenes and we give authors wide latitude.

There are very few taboos in our line but the following are very firm. We do not want to see material containing bestiality, necrophilia or paedophilia.
