The oldest ebook publisher for the GLBT community, Torquere has published several best-selling authors such as Sean Michael, Julia Talbot, Chris Owen, BA Tortuga, and Kiernan Kelly.
Torquere publishes every genre of romance, from paranormal to western to sci-fi, as long as the main characters are GLBT. They have also expanded with Prizm, the first YA GLBT publisher and a subsidiary of Torquere Press, which began in 2008 and targets a young and new adult audience.
To commemorate their anniversary, Torquere Press will be re-releasing five original books in hardback for a limited time only:

Torquere Press Inc. started as a labor of love for two romance writers and readers, Shawn Clements and Lorna Hinson. In business since September of 2003, Torquere began as a general partnership, and incorporated in early 2007.
While many publishers out there in 2003 were putting out e-books, very few were publishing gay and lesbian romance. The mission of Torquere Press was, and is, to provide readers who love a good story with great books, and to promote gay and lesbian romance as a genre to be reckoned with.
