Slow burn doesn't necessarily mean less romance, it means there's so much sexual tension that the reader/watcher nearly explode with feels when the characters so much as hold hands because of all the longing and yearning the characters have gone through just to get to that point.Slow burn roms with some com on the side, please #MSWL

Before I close to queries, I really need ALL THE QUEER ROMROMS! All of them. Send to me! I'm desperate to sign a queer romance author who loves romcoms and also Emotions. Lots of feels. 🙏 #MSWL

Oddly specific Halloween #mswl: in the mood for... a YA ghost romance? 🤔 Some kind of historical or time-travel shenanigans a plus but not required.

I want a YA or Adult Rom-Com that is so cute, funny, and steamy. If yours includes an interracial relationship, I'll be your best friend! And when it comes to love stories, I am especially open to LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC. #MSWL

Oh to get a lighthearted YA contemp romance that is SO FILLED W/ *ROMANTIC SLOW-BURNING TENSION* that it makes ME want to spend the rest of my days in a secluded forest singing to the stars every night of my ~yearning~ until I’m 1 with the trees
Or something like that.

Writers! I am craving adult books. Send me your contemporary romance + romcoms, your suspense and thrillers, your horror + SFF, and your non-fic as long as it has a platform! I’m also very interested in reading genre bending books, so send those too! #mswl

In Adult, my main focus will be historical, contemporary romance, and select fantasy/paranormal. Adult is a harder sell for me, so it HAS to really be unique, new, and with strong voice/conflict

Lawsuits aside, I’m really loving the idea of a Victorian romantic mystery series featuring a grown-up version of Enola Holmes. #mswl

I've been seeing a lot of fantasy in queries and I'd love contemporary in the YA & Adult space! Also, looking for more Women's Fiction, Domestic Suspense (think Dark Places), and Romance! Though less rom-com and more steamy - really, anything that's not too sweet! #mswl

2. Adult rom-com or contemporary romance set during the holidays—I love Christmas, but I’d love to see diverse holidays celebrated also.

Queer. Historical. Romance. F/f, nb/nb, or f/nb. That is all.
