Harlequin Mondadori Enterprises , is a 50-50 joint venture between Mondadori and Harlequin Enterprises established in 1981, with the aim of publishing in Italy the novels produced and distributed throughout the world by this Canadian publishing group.
Known mainly for romantic fiction series under the Harmony brand, which have developed newsstand sales of 8 million copies per year, Harlequin Mondadori has recently extended its business through the bookshop launch of new editorial brands aimed at women.
