Critique partners are worth their weight in gold. So (checking financial page) like $20,000 a pound.

Looking for beta readers or critique partner for my adult, queer contemporary romance

Post by AJCox » February 25th, 2025, 10:18 am

Hi, first time author here seeking Beta readers or a critique partner for my 80,000 approx word, queer (f/f), adult romance novel. The manuscript is on its fourth round of edits and I am looking for some honest feedback from readers in regards to characters, structure and overall readability of writing.

Some tropes that you can find in this book include: forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine and HEA. Content warnings include: explicit sex, language, subtle themes of homophobia/transphobia and parental death (off page).

Please see below for a brief synopsis.

Caught in a life she hates trying to please her parents, Jazz Hughs gets convinced by her brother to let a stranger move in with her. What Jazz doesn’t expect, is a motorbike riding lesbian to turn up at her doorstep and turn her life into a whirlwind of confusion and identity crisis.

Grateful that it’s a temporary arrangement, Abby Roberts, is counting down the days till she can put space between her and the roommate that she can’t seem to stay away from. Even the distraction of trying to make her dream job permanent can’t stop Abby from seeking out Jazz at every opportunity.

As things heat up between them, Jazz is faced with the harsh reality that maybe she’s not the person she believed. While Jazz goes down a path of self-acceptance and rebellion of her parents’ ideals, Abby must look into her past if she is to become someone who is capable of the relationship she so desperately desires.

If you are interested, please contact me at ajcoxwrites@gmail.com. Open to critique all types of romance novels.

AJ :)
