Jessi McDaniel (jessimcdaniel) | 19 comments I'm not done with my book yet (nearing the end) and I'm looking for someone to go over my chapters and give me their thoughts on it. I'd be interested in doing the same, looking over chapters of an unfinished book or of a finished one. I've done beta reads a couple time. My book is supernatural themed with underlying romance.
Okay, thanks for your time!!

K.P. Merriweather (kp_merriweather) | 129 comments I'd love to swap with you. I have a ya urban fantasy that needs another set of eyes. I have the last five chapters to write but it's basically done. Since I can't self edit being too close to the work, there might be a few things I've missed. So feel free to make editorial edits if need be.

Title: Spellbound
Blurb: She saw the future and it was deadly...
Joni Warren has skills few other 17-year-olds have. She can cast simple spells, heal minor injuries and see (somewhat) into the future.
However, using her ability to check out the impending fate of her best friend’s new boyfriend proved to be disastrous!
Finding he’s a fighter from another realm isn’t what scares her - it’s gaining powerful spirit weapons called Legions and having sorcerers coming out the woodwork to battle her for them in a bad way that does.
Giving up the weapons and resuming her boring life would be easy - if it weren’t for the constant fear of death involved!

Words: 82k, expected to be around the 85k mark. Please pm me for whichever format you prefer.

Andrea Drew (andreadrew) | 3 comments Sounds great. Here is my synopsis. Mine probably comes closer to urban fantasy. I'm new to this whole thing, but will try to send you a pm, I'm sure I can work it out...:-)
Reluctant psychic Gypsy Shields—she prefers the term "intuition consultant"—finds herself in trouble she didn't imagine when, on her way home from a blind date, she interrupts a kidnapping in progress. She attempts to intervene, and her heroics are repaid with a collision between the attacker's van and a brick wall. She awakens in the hospital, paralyzed on her left side and unable to speak. This also means she's unable to share her vital information as a witness. Fortunately, she is able to use her telepathic connection with her niece to throw a line out to a police detective she knows: Connor Reardon, her blind date.

Connor will do anything to protect Gypsy, and he listens to her claims of psychic power willingly, as he's concealing certain powers of his own. Nor are they all he's concealing. Gypsy senses a part of her new ally's mind is closed to her—what she cannot know is that Connor suspects the kidnapper is someone in his own family, and the kidnapping victim holds secrets that will tear through Connor's department, putting careers and lives at risk. Including Gypsy, still in hospital and vulnerable as the attacker turns his sights on her once again.
