Romance Publishing Company
Like most online book publishing companies, Freya's Bower caters to a wide range of "heat levels." The levels range from Sweet, containing romance more than intimate details, through several levels with Beyond Sizzling as the highest. These levels are there to guide not only writers who want to submit romance manuscripts, but also to help readers to choose their ideal type of novel. All of the romance ebooks on the site are searchable by heat level as well as by category.
Readers can also search by book length. Romance readers and writers interested in manuscript submission can choose from among many specified book lengths. These range from micros through several short fiction sizes and include novellas, novels, plus novels and "humongous novels." Micros are 3,000 to 6,000 words in length while the humongous novel category is 100,001 words and up.

The books that are available in print form are available through the site as well as through Amazon, Barnes and Noble and various other bookstores.
Manuscript Submission
Freya's Bower does not always accept new manuscripts. When the review of new book manuscripts gets backed up, the Internet publisher stops accepting manuscripts. Currently, the manuscript submission process is suspended until July, 2010.
Every book published by the book publishing company is at its heart a romantic book about a relationship. No matter what the sub-genre, the length or the heat level, all Freya's Bower books center on a central romantic relationship. The plot should be the focus of the book, with the steamier details supporting the plot rather than becoming the plot itself.
Because of the enormous popularity of romance novels, the majority of online book publishing companies that publish fiction specialize in romantic books. Publishing a book through an Internet publisher generally means no up-front payment but generous royalty percentages.
