Subscribing to ILoveTheWayYou.com gets you instant access to all content: book reviews, true love stories, fictional stories of varying length from shorts to novels, art work, and more. It is our aim to explore romance and what romance means from an artistic perspective using a myriad of different mediums, so content categories will continue to grow.

There are three different subscription levels: Monthly, Annually, and VIP. Monthly offers you access to the entire site for a monthly price. Annually offers you access to the entire site for one price for the entire year that is approximately 15% less than the monthly price (once all 12 months are combined). V.I.P. access give you access to the entire site for a year plus two gift boxes full of exclusive content twice a year (in February and September).

New content is added weekly on Sundays by 3pm EST.

Unfortunately because membership provides unfettered access to the entire site of content, we do not offer refunds. If you are having difficulty or are unsatisfied for any reason, however, please contact us at info@ilovethewayyou.com and we will do our utmost to assist.

ILoveTheWayYou.com sources primarily from independent artists and authors. We deliberately hire from a diverse and varied pool of talented individuals from all over the world because there is no “one” perspective of love. Love is the ultimate universal language.

Absolutely! Each work begins and ends in romance with a variety of sub-genres: contemporary, comedy, historical, etc. Some might be instant attraction with the characters immediately obsessed with each other at first sight, others might be slow burn and the love doesn’t unfurl until the last book of a series, but if it’s on our site then it will have the core three tenants of all romance novels: two main characters who fall for each other, an obstacle that temporarily keeps them apart, and a happily ever after.

We give our stories a heat level on a scale of 1-5. 1: Sweet and innocent. No sex scenes closed door or otherwise, kissing and an awareness of sex and sexual attraction not detailed. 2: Sweet but sassy. Make out sessions and closed door sex scenes, swearing possible but no graphic language. 3: Sensual love. Sex scenes open door and very emotional, heavy focus on what the characters feel emotionally more than what they feel physically, swearing but no graphic language. 4: Spicy. Sex scenes open door and can be graphic but moves the plot forward and are strictly about developing the relationship between the characters. 5: Flaming. Erotica, graphic scenes, an exploration of sexual interests and identity, the story hinges on the sexual development of the characters on their way towards love.

The subscription box is our twice a year gift box. At this time the subscription box is only offered through our V.I.P. membership. As a V.I.P. member you will be given full access to our site for a year and sent a gift box twice a year (September and February).
