LGBTQ+ Content
*
Does this work contain positive LGBTQ+ content, either written by a member of the community, or a supportive ally? (Please keep in mind, my priority is reviewing LGBTQ+ content, but I will make exceptions depending on my schedule and personal interest in a specific work.)
Yes
No, but I'd like to be considered for a review anyway. (And I attest that this book does NOT contain hateful discrimination against any marginalized groups unless it is done so as part of the plot and handled very, very carefully and without purposeful intent to harm without associated growth or change depicted.)
Heat Rating
*
Whether your story contains a romantic aspect or not, please choose a heat rating below.
Zero Smooches ~ No romantic or sexual aspects to the story
One Smooch ~ Mild and vanilla with no sexual content on or off page. Think kissing and hand-holding, no heavy petting.
Two Smooches ~ Vanilla sexual content that fades to black or is handled with a focus on emotion and sensuality rather than graphic descriptions.
Three Smooches ~ Vanilla on-screen sexual content that contains graphic descriptions, but not super detailed. This category also includes any non-vanilla sexual content that is kept fairly vague and/or at the early experimental levels.
Four Smooches ~ All-in graphic detail for vanilla sex scenes and moderate description of kinkier elements.
Five Smooches ~ This category is reserved for erotica and/or those tales choked full of heavy heat and detailed descriptions. You know who you are, my kinky lovelies. I ain't scurrrred, but some readers might be.
Book Series
*
If this book is part of a series, please select an option below to indicate where in the series the book falls and whether it is standalone or not. I am open to reviewing non-standalone, out of order novels, but do request a brief synopsis of the prior books so I can connect effectively with the characters and storyline of the book I'm reviewing.
Standalone title, not part of a series
Series, Book 1
Series, Book 2 (and beyond) ~ Not Standalone
Series, Book 2 (and beyond) ~ Standalone
Trigger/Content Warnings
*
If there is any content within your book that might require a trigger warning, please detail below. This includes any non-consensual scenes between MCs or other characters, overt rape (on page or off), suicide, graphic violence, or anything you think would be good to provide a warning for. It doesn't mean I won't read, I just want to know what I've got coming my way! :) I might discuss a few things in more detail with you before accepting the review.
Brief Synopsis
*
Please provide a brief synopsis of the book you are requesting I review. It can be first-draft level and riddled with grammatical and editorial errors. I promise, I won't be judging you, I just want an idea of what the story is about. Book blurbs totally work, as long as they give enough story elements to allow for an idea of the story, rather than based purely on intrigue or catchy grab-wording. :)
First Pages Sample
*
To be sure we're a good fit, please provide the first five pages of your book—just copy and paste, don't worry about formatting (it'll get wonky... so is the nature of the internet web form beast). It's okay if you go over or under the 5 pages by a bit if it feels right to do so. I just want a snippet of your writing to get a feel for your voice!
Purchase Links
*
Please include links to all retail sites your book baby will be available on. (If you are requesting this review prior to pre-order links being available, that's fine. However, I won't schedule a review until those are available). You can (and should) also provide links to your book baby's Goodreads, Bookbub, etc.
Any Other Links
If there is anywhere else you'd like me to link readers, such as secondary author websites, additional Facebook groups, social media accounts, etc. please include those here.
Author Bio
*
Please provide a brief author bio I can attach to the review. I will also request your author logo and/or author photo in the blog kit once a review date has been confirmed.
Author Involvement / Reader Engagement
*
In order to provide a richer experience for our mutual readers, I'm asking authors to provide something a little extra. It doesn't have to be anything extravagant, but it can be! Please review the items below and select at least one you'd be interested in including with my review post. If you're unsure but willing, please check the final box and I'd be happy to discuss it with you!
