Seeking Beta Readers for Fun and Fresh RomCom (85k words)

[Katie]

Hi readers! I have a RomCom that could be growing in the same garden as the works of Emily Henry, Abby Jimenez, Ali Hazelwood, etc.
I’m hoping some strangers can give it a read for clarity, plot holes, development and pacing.
She’s complete at 86,000 words and a quick read.

One million thanks.

Katie

Here’s the blurb:

At 26, Olive’s barely keeping it together in Los Angeles—trapped under the manicured thumb of a wildly unpredictable boss at a production studio, newly single after her boyfriend ditched her for a showmance, and buried under bills she can’t pay. When she’s tasked with throwing a garden party she meets Ezra in her email-a laid-back set builder with a skateboard, a soulful dog named Mud, and an inbox full of witty banter.

Their friendship builds slowly, then all at once. When they finally meet in person, sparks fly—but just as things are starting to bloom, Olive realizes she can’t afford to stay in L.A., but that doesn’t stop the chemistry—or the connection—from growing.

With Ezra’s crew pulling her in and her woodworking hobby turning into actual paid work, Olive finds herself building m

ore than just knickknacks—she’s building a new life. Just when it seems too late, and after sending Ezra away to protect her plan, she realizes the plan was never the problem.

What follows is a story of heartbreak, healing, and unexpected second chances—with one unforgettable dog, one impossible-to-ignore connection, and two people brave enough to rebuild from the pieces.
