FAQ
Do you read explicit content, high heat, or smut?
Yes, absolutely! As a specialist in paranormal romance and urban fantasy, I am completely comfortable with explicit, high-heat, and spicy scenes. I will evaluate the chemistry, tension, and whether the scenes match the overall tone of your book.
Do you offer grammar proofreading or copyediting?
No, I do not. The Fated Reader focuses entirely on story structure, pacing, plot logic, character chemistry, and trope execution. While I will point out glaring timeline inconsistencies or repetitive words, this service is strictly for the reader experience, not technical editing.
What file formats do you accept?
Please submit your manuscript as a Microsoft Word document (.docx) or via a Google Docs link with commenting permissions turned on. This allows me to easily leave in-line feedback and track my reading progress.
Will you read a book that has a cliffhanger or is part of a series?
Yes! Please just let me know if the book is a standalone, the start of a new series, or a mid-series sequel. If it is mid-series, providing a short 1-paragraph summary of previous events is incredibly helpful so I can jump right into the story.
How do I know my story and intellectual property are safe with you?
I take author confidentiality very seriously. Your manuscript will never be shared, leaked, or used for any purpose outside of this beta read. Once your order is complete and accepted, the file is permanently deleted from my device.
What if my manuscript's word count is between your package tiers?
No problem at all! If your book is longer than 80,000 words or falls right between two packages, just send me a direct message before ordering. I will gladly send you a Custom Offer tailored exactly to your specific word count.
What specific shifter tropes are you familiar with?
I am deeply familiar with fated mates, rejected mates, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, hidden alpha dynamics, secret babies, and pack political rivalries. If your book subverts these tropes or mixes in other supernatural creatures (like vampires, witches, or fae), I can handle that too!
