Review and Interview Requests
How to submit your Romance Book Review and Interview Request:

For e-books we will review from 5k-25k, for print books mailed to RA from 50K-90K. An interview questions will be sent to the author to answer. On RA blog we will show the review of the book and the interview with author, no rating will show for the review, simply our opinion about the book. If you are an author and would like to have a current, new, or upcoming e-book or print book release reviewed by RA, please send an email along with:
- A brief description of your book.
- The heat level.

- The link to your publisher.
- Number of pages.

- If no email was sent to you within one week, please do not email us asking if we received your email, or if we are going to review your book.
- If we are willing to review your book, an email will be sent to you to provide us with the book as print or PDF, and to inform you how long it will take from us.
- After the review is done, you will receive an email from us to inform you.
Information for authors/publishers:
- When we receive your request, if we are going to review your book we will ask for the book PDF or print. If we didn't come back to you asking for the book to review, please do not email us asking if we are going to review your book or not.
- RA voluntary review staff are readers, and may write as well. They come from different background; all reviews are pure opinion built on many readings, and in some cases, special expertise.
- You can use the review of your book in any way you want to promote your book, but make sure to mention the name of the reviewer and the link to Romance Alley under your review.
- Our reviewers are humans too, so while every effort is made to get your reviews out there sometimes life simply interferes; the crisis may be occurring with the reviewer, or with the site owner. We appreciate your understanding and patience when such events prevent us from meeting the timelines you have come to expect.
- Book covers are displayed for free, if the author would like their book trailer to be placed beside their review a fee and a limited duration will apply.
For the FTC'S purposes; Romance Alley and our reviewers do not accept paid endorsements, money for positive reviews, etc. All of our reviews are honest opinions of the books we read. Like the majority of book reviewers we buy our books and receive books for free from publishers and authors. Giving us a copy of your book does not, nor has it ever, guaranteed a positive review.
