Lisa Shea (lisashea) | 188 comments I have published 13 novels and over 40 self-help books, so hopefully in general this novel is "coherent" :). It should be free of most typos or other issues that tend to plague first novels.

This is my very first erotic romance novel, so I am mostly concerned that this novel works well for that audience. Until now I've written "fade to black" stories. I haven't included the intimate details. I want to get a sense that those scenes are smooth and well integrated.

The heroine has just graduated college and is tending bar as a favor to a friend. The hero is just out of prison, having done a stint for armed robbery in NYC. Will she redeem him?

Book 1 of this is 10 chapters long. Even if you could read the first chapter, and let me know if that grabs your attention, that would be a huge help.

Thanks!

Lisa

Heather | 61 comments Sure. I will do it for you. I've edited and read plenty of novels in the erotica genre. As long as it's not a PDF, it should be fine for me.
