I will be an avid beta reader and sensitivity reader for ya romance manuscripts
Pro Beta Reader, book editor and formatter
About this Gig
Love in Young Adult romance hits differently. No careful calculation, no emotional armor, just two people stumbling into something they don't fully understand. That unpredictability is what makes YA romance compelling to read and tricky to write.
As a writer across fiction and non-fiction and romance beta reader, I bring a reader's instinct and a writer's empathy to every manuscript.
As your beta reader, here's what I look for:
Emotional pacing and slow-burn tension that pays off
Authentic teen voice, not adults dressed as teenagers
Plot consistency, mood, tone and twist execution
Age-appropriate behavior that still feels layered and real
My feedback includes chapter-by-chapter feedback, inline comments and a summary report shaped around your needs.
As a romance beta reader, I specializes in YA romance specifically among other sub genres. Either you submit it to agents or self-publish, a focused beta reading and romance pass can be the difference between a story that lingers and one that's forgotten.
Not sure yet? Send me Chapter One, I'll return honest feedback for free. Let my work speak before you commit.

FAQ
Have you ever worked as a romance beta reader before?
Yes. I’ve done over 10 beta reading projects in various genres of fiction, such as YA romance, on other platforms aside from Fiverr. In addition to being a writer myself, I know both the craft and the art that goes into creating your book beyond simply what you’ve written down.
What would your beta reader feedback entail?
In accordance with your preference, you will receive chapter-based feedback, inline comment within your manuscript, and a summary report. Each pass ensures analysis on issues such as pacing, tone, voice, plotting consistency, and emotional fulfilment the elements that define a successful YA novel.
Do you specialize in YA romance specifically?
Yes. YA romance is one of my core reading and writing genres. I understand its conventions slow-burn tension, authentic teen voice, healthy relationship dynamics and I know when a manuscript is hitting those marks or quietly missing them. This isn't a genre I dabble in; it's one I'm deeply familiar
What qualifies you as a sensitivity reader for YA romance?
As both a writer and experienced beta reader, I approach sensitivity reading with a critical but empathetic eye. For YA romance specifically, I flag unintentionally harmful relationship dynamics, representation that misses the mark and content that may resonate poorly with young adult readers.
Will you keep my manuscript confidential?
Absolutely. Your manuscript is your intellectual property and is treated with complete confidentiality. I do not share, discuss or reproduce any part of your work with third parties. If you require additional protection, I am fully willing to sign a NDA before any beta reading begins.
How long will beta reading my manuscript take?
Turnaround time depends on your manuscript's word count and is clearly outlined in each pricing package. I do not rush through any romance manuscript thorough beta reading takes time, and the feedback you receive will reflect that. Check the packages to find the right fit for your word count.
Do you only highlight problems or also what's working?
I do both. Strong beta reading isn't just a list of problems, it also tells you what's landing so you don't accidentally edit out what's working. You'll know which scenes hit emotionally, where the romance tension is building well and what's already connecting before you make any changes.
Can I ask follow-up questions after receiving my feedback?
Yes. Once you receive your beta reading report, you're welcome to follow up with questions about any part of the feedback. I'd rather you fully understand every note than leave you second-guessing a revision. Clear communication is part of the service, not an extra.
What if I disagree with your beta reading feedback?
That's completely valid. Feedback is perspective, not instruction. You are the author and the final creative voice. My job is to give you an honest outside reader's experience of your YA romance. What you do with that is entirely your call. Disagreement is a healthy part of the creative process.
How do I know your feedback is the right fit before ordering?
It's Simple. Just send me Chapter One of your manuscript, I'll return genuine beta reader feedback at no cost so you can evaluate the depth and tone of my notes before committing. If it resonates, we go from there. If it doesn't, you've lost nothing. My work speaks for itself.
