Authors & Reviewers discussion

Hi Victoria! I would be so appreciative for a review from you and could send an epub or pdf copy to you.

BLURB: Imogene is only five years old when her parents suddenly and mysteriously disappear. Left with no choice but to live with an abrasive relative, she finds comfort in the alliance she's forged with an unlikely friend. She secretly holds dear, her mother's last words. "Five years, Imogene. I shall come for you in five years." Imogene sadly soon learns, that things are not always as they seem. Upon reaching the age of ten, she has new confidence, and eagerly awaits her parents' return. Under the encouragement of her friend, Imogene embarks on a journey to an incredible world, learns who she really is, and where her true destiny lies.

Thanks, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi Victoria,

I am getting ready to self-pub my debut novel on Jan 1, 2026 and I am currently looking for ARCs for Hunting The Heiress. A Romantic Space Fantasy.

A shattered kingdom. A hunted heiress. A forbidden attraction that could ignite a war.

Synopsis:

On the scorching desert moon of Talear, a ruthless overlord’s quest for power leaves the royal family of Valeria shattered—except for one lost princess.

Kendra Kunnetsov, sold by her father and assumed dead, hides aboard a stolen ship alongside a crew of escaped convicts. Life was peaceful and predictable, until a mysterious moonstone pulses with ancient energy and Kendra’s secret is exposed, igniting a galaxy-wide hunt for her capture.

Reyne, a hardened bounty hunter haunted by his past, is sent to track her down. His orders are clear: bring Kendra back alive and secure a reward that could save his people. Yet, as their destinies collide in a deadly game of pursuit and escape, neither can deny the spark that flares between them. With danger closing in from every side and loyalties tested, Kendra and Reyne must decide if their growing passion is worth risking everything—or if love will become the greatest threat of all.

Tropes:
Enemies to Lovers
Royal Heroine
Morally Grey Hero
Abduction
Manipulative (love him or hate him) Villain
Forced Proximity
Slow Burn

Hunting the Heiress is a pulse-pounding tale of betrayal, redemption, and the courage to claim your destiny and perfect fans of enemies-to-lovers romance, high-stakes adventure, and sweeping space opera.

This is a full-length standalone romance with a satisfying HEA but also contains dark themes that may not be enjoyable for all readers. Themes to consider before diving-in include abduction; power dynamics; drugging; torture of MCs; graphic violence and profanity.

If this is something you would be interested in reading, please let me know. Spice level is about a 3.

Hi Kat,
I just read your description and I was wondering if I could review your book- I like YA, fantasy (sci-fi), and romance! These tropes and the plot sounds really interesting, are you still in need of reviewers?
Thanks,
Cici

Hi Cici, I would LOVE that. I am tweaking a couple minor things on my epub version, but I should have it ready shortly. How do you normally receive ARCs? I'm still new to this process :-)

Kat

Hi Kat,
That's fantastic! Could you send it over as a PDF at katsuudon49@gmail.com? If not, an epub will be just fine. Many thanks,
Cici

Hi Victoria!
I'm a brand new indie author getting ready to publish my first ever book! It's a contemporary romance set in North Carolina. It has the "friends to lovers" vibe with some great comedy mixed in. Would love to get some ARC reviewers. Will gladly send epub or pdf file your way : )

I'll send it over shorty. All I have is an epub version. I did notice a couple typos that will be fixed before the book goes live. Thank You :-)
