With the rules out of the way, let's move on to category submissions. Remember that you can submit a maximum of 2 books, but they must belong to different categories. Just a reminder, your book should have romance as its main theme. 

Below is a list of all the acceptable categories for this contest and the number of books allowed in each one. 

Please note that each category must have at least 3 participants. If there are any categories with only 2 or fewer participants, I will try to combine them, but we'll address that issue if it arises.

Most of the categories will contain mature content. I'm not talking about just a few bad words; I mean there will be explicit sexual content, graphic violence, and more. As a result, you'll have to mention if your book has mature themes in the forms.
