We publish romance in all its incarnations (except for erotica). I am specifically drawn to novel-length works in fantasy or sci-fi (romantic elements a must), any of the sub-genres. I would love to see a great steampunk/romance with equal attention paid to the plot as to the romance, something outside of Victorian England would be … Continue reading

My main interest is YOUNG ADULT with strong romantic elements, in the genres of fantasy, sci-fi, and contemporary. A high concept plot and strong teen voice are a must. A project that blends genres would also be great, such as sci-fantasy, SF mystery/thriller, contemporary fairytale retelling, or whatever you can think up! I am also … Continue reading

I acquire nonfiction titles for our adult list with a Northwest regional focus yet national appeal. The tagline for what we do at Sasquatch is “cool stuff from here” and “here” extends from the Pacific Northwest into Alaska. I’m focusing on practical nonfiction in the categories of home, garden, craft, DIY, style, love and relationships, … Continue reading

I edit romance for Samhain Publishing and would LOVE to see more LGBTQ+ NA in my inbox. Historicals set in unusual places and time periods would also make me swoon—both hetero and LGBTQ+ very welcome on this one. Continue reading

I will, however, give extra attention to any work that has at least one of the elements I have discussed below: Ideally I would like to see a book that mixes all of … Continue reading
Suzanne Evans, Entangled Publishing
For adult romance, I’m looking for historical romance with a good balance between romance and story, though I shy away from westerns and regency. I love suspense with realistic action that can still keep me on the edge of my seat and paranormal that steps out of the confines of vampires and werewolves. I love … Continue reading

For Young Adult, I am looking for contemporary, sci-fi, and thrillers. I also love books that combine genres in a unique and clever way. I’d love to see more interesting settings and cultures. And I’m also looking for fun, romantic dual POV contemporary romances. Bad boys and cute nerdy guys are my favorite. For New … Continue reading
