How it Works

My Sweet Romance strives to make it easier for readers that prefer clean romance novels to find their next favorite read. To fulfill our readers' needs as well as help our authors reach their target audience, every book submission goes through an approval process to ensure they fit our "clean sweet romance" category. Please refer to Our Book Standards to better determine if your book is a good fit for the website.

No. The only time you will receive an email in regards to the approval/dispproval of your book, is if your book HAS NOT been approved. If you do not receive an email from our team within 3-4 businesses days of submitting your form, then congrats! Your book has been approved and is on the website!

IF YOUR BOOK IS APPROVED You should expect to see your book listing up on the website within 3-4 business days. Please check the relevant trope pages on the website after 3-4 business days to confirm your book has been added -- you will NOT BE EMAILED when your book is live. IF YOUR BOOK IS NOT APPROVED You will receive an email from our team within 3-4 business days of submitting your form indicating your book does not meet our guidelines, and it unfortunately cannot be listed on our website.

We ask our authors to give our team 3-4 buinesses days to approve and list their book(s). If after 3-4 business days from when you submitted your form you do not see your book listed on the website nor have you received any type of email from our team, please contact us using our form here. We appreciate your patience!

My Sweet Romance Books uses subscription money for advertising on various social media platforms such as Facebook, Pinterest, TikTok, and Instagram to entice both readers and authors to the website.

You can make all of these additions, edits, or cancellations in your My Sweet Romance Books account. Login to your account by going to the For Authors page, locating the login icon in the top right corner, and entering your login credentials. Once logged in, use the arrow next to the login icon, to navigate to the desired page and make any additions, edits, or cancellations to your book listings.

Start by filling out the "Update a Book Listing" form. It's there that you can either submit a link to where we can download the new book cover and update the listing, OR you are instructed to email us at shaylacooley@howardmarketinggroup.com with the following info: 1. Subject line : "BOOK COVER UPDATE REQUEST" 2. Body: Your name & book title 3. Attachment : Your new 2-D book cover (like the ones you see listed on Amazon)

We need a 2-D cover image for your book listing just like what Amazon uses for their book listings and adverstisments.

We are sad to see any of our amazing authors go! But if you must cancel your subscription and as a result take down any book listing from the website, you can do this simply by logging into your account from the For Authors page and going to My Subscriptions. From there you can click "Cancel" next to your subscription. Once your billing cycle ends, you will no longer be charged and your book listings will all be taken down.

Our goal for My Sweet Romance Books is to show the world that there is such a thing as clean romance; therefore, we do our best to follow strict guidelines to ensure that every book that is listed on our website is in fact, clean romance. HOWEVER, we are human and sometimes a book gets through our screening process that does not meet our guidelines. If you know of a book (and can prove) that does not meet the My Sweet Romance Books standards, please contact us using our Contact Us form on our website. We want My Sweet Romance Books to be an easy way to find "clean sweet romance" books, and we will do our best to uphold that purpose.

Our plans currently only go up to 12 Books; HOWEVER, If you have more books you would like to share with the world, simply purchase a second plan for your account to get to the total number of books you need! You will have to purchase one at a time.

Please fill out our quick "Remove a Book Listing" form and request your current book listing to be removed from the website. You can access this form by logging into your My Sweet Romance Books account. Next, fill out the "Submit a Book" form (also found in your account) with the new book's information. Please allow our team 3-4 business days to make the swtich.
