Adult

I am eagerly seeking diverse, underrepresented voices and perspectives. In Adult fiction I’m looking for rich, compelling, character-driven stories, multi-layered, realistic characters. In Contemporary Romance, Christian Fiction I’m craving a sweet, inspirational, compelling story. I am partial to contemporary but will consider carefully crafted historical. In all areas I am looking for unique voices and deep, edgy storylines that evoke around-the-table conversations. Books that are gripping, heartfelt and highly relatable. Stories of faith, redemption and forgiveness that hook me after the first few pages. Some humor, fun and adventure would be enticing.
