FREE BOOKS for Book lovers: ARC & Polished Manuscript Readers for Authors discussion

I am currently seeking ARCs to add to my feedback/review history. I review currently on Netgalley, Goodreads, Insta, Threads, X, and Fable. My most-read genres are thrillers, horror, fantasy, romance, and literary fiction. I have a serious weakness for a twisty plot or a romance that emotionally wrecks me at 2 a.m. (I regret nothing). My average book rating sits at a solid 4.2 stars, which means I read with both heart and high standards.

I have an upcoming ARC for May. It's a spicy paranormal romance with MC's in in 30's.
Chasing Petals is book 1 in The Rose Duet and features a protective werewolf, a human single mom, fated mates, emotional baggage, and some heat. More than my previous books actually.
If this sounds like something you might be interested in, here's the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NGVW...

Thanks for your consideration and happy reading!

Hiiiii! I have ARC signups open for a romance between a merman and a lighthouse keeper (a woman) in the 1800s! It's not smut (sorry) but it's super romantic and sweet. She's treated like an outcast because she has a job, fearlessly saves men, and is good at inventing, and he feels like a failed mermaid for not wanting to hurt others (because I based mermaids off dolphins and they're kind of awful lol). But together, they finally feel seen.

Reviews would ideally be posted on May 1st but you could let me know if you needed more time.

Please fill out this form if you're interested!

Hi Brittany,

My book is not exactly a romance or a thriller, or a sci-fi, but it's kind of a mix, and it has plenty of twists, so I wonder if it may interest you.
I would love to send you an ARC if you want to give it a read.

Wishmen: A Sci-Fi Thriller About What We Want—and What It Costs

Hi!
I'm a debut romance author. My book is coming out Aug. 30 2025.

For the month of July I would like to give my book away for free. I would appreciate an honest review, but even that is optional.

The book is 'The Governor's Daughter : A Contemporary Romance about Truth, Freedom, Beauty and Love' by Parker Williamson

Camilla Reyes was raised with all the qualities the United States expects from a Pacific territory: beauty, wealth, and obedience. But when she publicly champions independence for her homeland of Hangua, defying her father—the island's powerful governor—the colony erupts in chaos. To contain the fallout, Camilla is forced into an arranged marriage.

Desperate to escape, Camilla strikes a deal with the last man she'd ever trust: Senator Julian Oz, the sharp-tongued politician who humiliated her on live television. Experienced and ruthlessly disciplined, Julian sees opportunity in Camilla as dangerous attraction ignites between them—under his tutelage, they go from enemies to lovers. To survive, she must become the perfect partner to a man who’s either using her… or falling for her.

This puts her on a collision course with Mari Cruz—Camilla’s best friend. From friend to lover, now lover to enemy, they shared one kiss too many before Camilla’s engagement to Julian shattered everything. As tensions escalate between the United States and China, the two women who once shared everything now face each other on opposite sides of Hangua's most divisive fight: statehood or independence—a battle that will determine their island's fate.

On Hangua, politics is legacy, love is currency, and betrayal is the price of freedom.

For fans of Enemies to Lovers, Arranged Marriages, Fake Engagements, Sapphic Love, Political Romance and Love Triangles.

Hello, I published the first volume of the series inspired by a real character, Raimondello Orsini del Balzo, set in the Italian Middle Ages. It's a historical adventure novel. I would need honest reviews to help it grow. Would you help me?

Hi, do you like urban fantasy? I'm looking for readers for my 3rd book in the series. I'm also offering to send the first two (one at a time) so you can get caught up. Which means, I'd understand if your review comes a little later than launch day.

Here's the blurb:
Since Hally’s fated-friend, Nolan, upended her exile mere months ago, they’ve saved the elven realm from a ruthless mage, a deadly curse, and a war with the fae. Now terrorists have struck the elven capital and the royals are being held hostage. It’s Hally and Nolan to the rescue, again.
Despite a family crisis in Paris, they’re forced to drop everything and scramble for an open portal as the network collapses. Every victory has a cost and as secrets surface and sacrifices mount, Hally and Nolan must ask themselves: can they save the realm without losing each other?
*picture on form is not part of the cover. Cover reveal will be August 23th.
Here's the sign up sheet.

So it’s 1997 in this small town in Nova Scotia. A girl goes missing in the sea caves and comes back three days later. She's barely breathing, near death, and completely traumatized.
Now her friends are starting to see some messed up stuff.
And her boyfriend?
He’s hearing voices.
Specifically one that says: kill her friends, or she dies.

It’s got cursed legends, missing kids, ghost trains, and emotionally unstable boys, and one boy with a switchblade.
Aka, everything I love in a book.

If you're into IT x Goonies x Stand by Me x Stranger Things, you’re gonna be obsessed.

🖤 Tropes included:
• Haunted small town vibes.
• Found family but traumatized
• Childhood trauma, but make it supernatural.
• Morally gray, broken boys
• Girls who fight back.
• The “wait—did that really happen?” type of horror.

It’s just under 500 pages, and I’m sending out ARCs between Aug 15–30.
The book releases Oct 1.
If you're down to read early and leave an honest review, link’s below. 🖤
