I'd love to see a romance novel that's spooky or a little off kilter or dark. Something like MORBIDLY YOURS or LOVE IN THE TIME OF SERIAL KILLERS. #mswl

I know I'm late to the party, but I've just finished One Day, and it wrecked me. And so, naturally, I want more of this in my inbox! Sweeping romance with big feelings, true connection(!), and maybe some tears thrown in. #mswl

Very much in my romance era. Contemporary romance w/ or w/o spec, rom coms, women’s fiction with romance, cozy fantasy romance, epic fantasy romance, YA and MG romance, horror with romance elements. I want it all so send it to meeeee pls. I wanna squeal and kick my feet #MSWL

A few things I'd love to see in my inbox right now! #MSWL

-horror
-gothic/dark academia vibes
-romance with a spec twist
-"nerdy"/fandom romance (think: comicons, cosplay, fanart/fanfic, D&D)
-contemporary/grounded fantasy

- I am looking for fast paced, high stakes adventures in all genres!
- fantasy and horror in particular — send me your gothic, psychological, magical tales
- diverse stories & queer romance
- clever, voicey protagonists and villains!

I am a certified EmHen girly! If you can meld swoon-worthy romance, beautiful prose, and, crucially, the exploration of the real (emotional and tangible) issues that young women face like Emily Henry does, I’m all in. I want books that earnestly believe in love the way EmHen’s do

I am often sent the more closed door romance novels (which I do love!) but I'd love to see stuff with some higher spice levels 🌶️🌶️🌶️

I still need great plot, pacing and characterisation alongside it (obviously)! I love Emily Henry, Tessa Bailey and Talia Hibbert as some inspo

I definitely want this type of romance in my inbox the next time I open for submissions. #MSWL

Some queer #MSWL ! First, stories about marginalized and queer people going abroad and finding themselves. Or queer romance featuring equestrians. Any tennis centered queer books PLEASE?! And a general call out for trans stories from trans authors.

same #A #MSWL plz
