Some authors signed with Harlequin Enterprises B.V. or Harlequin Books S.A.

In turn, Harlequin Enterprises B.V. and Harlequin Books S.A. licensed the books to the parent company.

The contract supposedly says that miscellaneous digital rights get 50% of the royalty that the parent company received. I haven't seen the contracts, but I'm guessing they say that the authors get 100% of the received royalties for print.

Thus for print they got 6-8%, for any unspecified digital rights they got half that.
