Whether you're crafting a slow-burn romance, a twisty suspense arc, or a dual-POV love story with emotional bite, an early-stage review can be the difference between good writing and truly impactful storytelling. My Reader Assessment service offers developmental insight before formal editing, proofreading, or publishing, helping you refine your manuscript while preserving your voice and vision.

This is where we interrogate structure, pacing, character arcs, emotional rhythm, and genre payoff. I look at what’s working, what’s missing, and where your story could hit harder, always with your goals and audience in mind.

As a lifelong romance reader and professional editor, I approach manuscripts with both storytelling intuition and editorial precision. My feedback is tailored to indie romance authors who want more than surface polish—they want emotional resonance, narrative clarity, and characters who stay with the reader long after the final page.

Think of this service as a test audience with an editorial lens, or a chance to refine your work before it undergoes technical revisions. Whether you're building romantic tension, shaping character arcs, or navigating plot twists, this early feedback helps you eliminate missteps and strengthen your manuscript before the next stage.
