This sounds like such an interesting story. Please let me know when you publish it as I would love to purchase a copy and offer a review. Unfortunately, I am not offering free beta reading at this time, however, I do have a similar service called an Editorial Assessment. These examine how your use of characterization, plot, setting, and other literary elements engages the reader and propels the story and theme. After reading your novel, I write a detailed revision letter highlighting the advantages and shortcomings of your narrative, while providing potential solutions and advice for various problems within your manuscript. For a novel a standard 80,000-word novel, the price would be $129.
If you are still looking for a professional editor, I offer Advanced Editorial Assessments and Full Developmental Edits, as well. You can learn more about these services on my website: EditingYourWorlds.com.
Thank you for making such a wonderful group and I look forward to seeing your novel published. Have a great day!

3. Approximately 90,000 words.
4. I am looking for a 3-week turnaround once reader receives the PDF of the work
Hey Everyone!
I'm looking for beta readers for my new Contemporary fiction draft.
I completed it several months ago. It would be professionally edited soon and I would be self-publishing it next year.
It's about 116,000 words. Also, I have a business plan to adapt this story into a film someday. Here is some info about the story.
It's a pro-black love story. There's drama, politics, empowering & sexy dark-skinned black women & men. Strong black female/male leads. Gems are dropped throughout the story.
A multigenerational tale between two families that are adamant against their children getting romantically involved. The story deals with many important social issues. It's unapologetically black & it has many triggers.
A wealthy/powerful black politician's son is accused of rape by his girlfriend. He goes out of his way to protect his son & his family's reputation.
The Summerville family has spent decades building their dynasty. They are the richest black family & the third richest family in the world. They are on the verge of creating black wall streets around the globe & helping the black community make the greatest comeback in the history of mankind.
Senator Summerville is the CEO of a very successful pro-black organization (very reminiscent of what a modern-day Black Panthers would have been) that has united blacks around the globe and staged a permanent boycott in order to keep the black community's trillion-dollar net worth flourishing in their own communities.
The Summervilles are assertive & brilliant and they plan to keep their powerful status in society come hell or high water and if anybody dares step into their path, they would be put in their place.
Thank you!
