Job Title: Beta Reader Needed for Contemporary Billionaire Romance Novel. Description I'm seeking an experienced beta reader for a completed contemporary romance novella. The manuscript has been self-edited and I am looking for thoughtful reader feedback before moving to the next stage of publication. Genre: Contemporary Billionaire Romance (Big City Setting) Length: Approximately 16,500 words I am looking for feedback on: • Overall reader experience • Story flow and pacing • Character development and believability • Emotional connection and romantic chemistry • Areas that feel confusing or underdeveloped • Dialogue authenticity • Consistency of voice and tone • Repetitive language or awkward phrasing • Whether the story meets reader expectations for the billionaire romance genre In addition to a written feedback report (template provided), I would like comments directly within the manuscript (Google Docs or Microsoft Word preferred) noting: • Confusing passages • Dialogue that feels unnatural • Timeline or continuity issues • Repetition • Scenes that lack emotional impact • Opportunities to strengthen character motivations or story tension This is a beta read, not a copyediting or proofreading project. I'm looking for honest, reader-focused developmental feedback. When applying, please include: • Your experience reading or reviewing contemporary romance, particularly billionaire romance • Any relevant beta reading experience • A sample beta report or feedback example (if available) • Your estimated turnaround time Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.
