Their website is well organized and easy to navigate. I personally don’t love reading all that red on white text, but I don’t generally read romance novels, so I am not the target audience.

Forever Yours accepts romance submissions from all subgenres, including but not limited to: contemporary romance, new adult, category romance stories, romantic suspense, western, historical, inspirational, paranormal, time-travel, and erotica.
