Professional Book Design and Publishing Specialist
About this Gig
Writing a dark romantasy, paranormal romance, or fantasy romance novel? I will beta read your manuscript as a target reader and give honest, practical feedback before you publish, query, or revise.
I focus on:
- Romantic tension and chemistry
- Pacing, stakes, and chapter hooks
- World building and magic or supernatural rules
Morally gray characters, anti-heroes, fated mates, enemies to lovers, forbidden love, found family, slow burn, shifters, vampires, witches, fae, demons, and dark romance tropes
confusing plot points, weak motivations, and scenes that need more emotional impact
You will receive a clear reader report with what works, what pulled me out, and suggestions to strengthen your story for romantasy readers. Standard and Premium packages also include inline comments.
This is beta reading, not proofreading, line editing, or rewriting. I focus on reader experience, story impact, genre expectations, and trope satisfaction.
Please message me before ordering if your manuscript is over the package word count or contains very dark themes.

FAQ
What genres do you specialize in?
I specialize in dark romantasy, paranormal romance, fantasy romance, and dark romance. This includes enemies-to-lovers, fated mates, morally grey characters, shifters, vampires, fae, demons, witches, and anti-hero stories. I also read general fantasy and sci-fi romance.
Do you read explicit or dark content?
Yes. I am comfortable reading dark romance, morally grey themes, violence, and explicit scenes within the romantasy genre. However, I will not read content involving minors, extreme gore for shock value, or real-world hate speech. Please message me if you are unsure about your content.
What format should I send my manuscript in?
I accept DOCX, PDF, or Google Docs links. Google Docs is preferred for inline comments. If you have a specific format preference, let me know in the requirements section when placing your order.
What is included in your feedback?
Every package includes a detailed reader report covering pacing, plot, character chemistry, world-building, and trope execution. Standard and Premium packages also include inline comments directly in your manuscript. Premium adds chapter-by-chapter breakdowns and comp-title suggestions.
Can you read my full novel if it is over 100,000 words?
Yes. If your manuscript exceeds the Premium package word count, please message me before ordering so I can send a custom offer with the correct pricing. I regularly read manuscripts over 100,000 words and will adjust delivery time accordingly.
Is this proofreading or editing?
No. This is beta reading, which focuses on the reader experience — story impact, pacing, character development, and genre expectations. I do not correct grammar, fix typos, line edit, or rewrite. If you need proofreading or editing services. Is another package.
