A cozy, slice-of-life fantasy following two kids as they navigate their internal struggles. Set in a war-torn country where two orphaned brothers find a new home in a rustic village. Mitali meets Sam, a mysterious, closed-off girl with pointy ears.

GOOD BOYS ONLY🐾🌿

A plus-size baddie dog sits to survive after her ex leaves her—then she meets a guy in the personal care aisle who’s everything her ex wasn’t: loyal, patient & in desperate need of a dog sitter…which might just ruin her plan to swear off love forever

#BluePit📖 #Q #A #R
Good Boys Only cover page. Stock images of a plus-size white woman, and a plus-size white man with tattoos. Agent's Guide, 89,000 words, adult-plus-size rom-com. Images of polaroid pictures with stock images, including tattooed hand-holding, a Red Wings game, and a corgi + golden retriever. On a green background with Sydney and Owen repeated in a transparent deboss over the background Good Boys Only pitch. Includes a stock image of a man with tattoos, and a plus-size woman. Emoticons of a pawprint and leaf. Split green background with sage green and light green. With this text: After her boyfriend of six years moves out, retail manager Sydney Bennett is barely hanging on—juggling long shifts and a side hustle dog-sitting to tide her over. When she meets Owen Sutton in the personal care aisle after a rant about two “demonic Pomeranians,” he’s instantly charmed—and in need of a sitter for his own, much better-behaved dogs. What starts as a business arrangement turns into something gentler and deeper: a slow-burning romance between two people still healing from betrayal. But as Sydney faces losing her apartment and the past comes back to haunt Owen, they’ll have to decide if the safety they’ve found in each other is worth risking their hearts for. Sample page and comp titles. Well, Actually by Mazey Eddings. You, With a View by Jessica Joyce. Curvy Girl Summer by Danielle Allen. Young & Hungry (TV Show). Text: “I hate to admit it, but you might be onto something,” I say with a small smile. “A compliment? From the chef herself? Whew, I’m gonna need to sit down.” Owen beams at me, and it’s a blast of electricity straight to my heart. “But think about it—you can finally get out of retail hell. I can help you, too. With a business plan. I’m kinda good at that stuff.” His grin turns sheepish before he dips his pinky finger into the sauce, sneaking a taste. My body processes the feeling before I do, and I lean closer to him, a newfound buoyancy floating across my limbs. “You’d do that for me?” “I’m not sure when you’ll get it through your pretty head that I’d do anything for you, Syd. Literally anything you asked.” He steps toward me, body radiating heat like the oven, casting me in a warm glow. His words have my stomach sinking to the bottom of the ocean. Tension circles the space between us, grasping the string and yanking us impossibly close. I scan across him, the art decorating his perfect form, and it’s suddenly a bucket list item to be part of his canvas. “Would you get a tattoo for me?” Owen’s nostrils flare and he squeezes his fists, as if he can feel the sting of the needle inking me onto him. “What’d you have in mind?” he chokes out. I crane my neck. He’s so close, eclipsing the steam from the pan surely teetering toward burnt. I can’t find it in me to care. “I think a sage leaf sprig would suffice, since you do love using my middle name.” “I’m not opposed. Where would you want it? Somewhere hidden? Where you’d only see it if I let you? Maybe front and center for a daily reminder of you?” He shifts. Our chests brush. Breathing is an illusion, a magic trick. I’ve never drawn in a breath in my life. Good Boys Only Tropes: black cat x golden retriever, stranger to lovers, she's his dog sitter, confident plus-sized FMC, facetimes & texts, found family, he falls first his dogs fall harder, set in Michigan, starting over at 30, when the spice hits... The Couple. Two images with Sydney Sage Bennett text over a plus-size woman, and Owen James Sutton over an image of a tattooed man. Text: 30, Aquarius | Retail Ops Manager Empathetic. Competitive. Amazing cook. Loves hockey. Sarcasm as a shield. Pilates girlie. Brunch is her love language. Poor spending habits. Younger sister. Sworn off relationships to focus on herself. 31, Cancer | National Events Manager. Patient and loyal. Flirty. Loves hockey. Bottles everything up. Former company co-founder. Amazing dog dad. Acts of service. Takes care of his elderly neighbor. Older brother. Prone to emotional spill-overs.

THE LOVE OF MY AFTERLIFE x CHARMED 💫

A top-of-her-game tarot reader & medium consistently ignores signs from her own spirit guides, causing them to show up in an *unconventional* way and take her on a journey through the tarot deck to ground her in what really matters 🔮

#BluePit📖 #W #A #R #SP #PN
Black and blue space/star background with four Polaroid images including an antique tea set, tarot cards and crystals, a black cat, and a stylized purple image of a woman. Text: Death to The Lovers and The Fool Adult Speculative Rom-Com | WIP Text: COMPS Black/blue space background with images of the book This Spells Love by Kate Robb, The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood, and Happy Medium by Sarah Adler with TV posters of the TV Show Charmed and Sabrina the Teenage Witch Black/blue space background Text: SAMPLE 1st draft Charlie rushes to the table, her burgundy maxi dress of choice cascading behind her in a flutter. “We have a problem.” “What do you mean by ‘we’ and ‘problem’?” “I mean, there’s a woman in the lobby who straight up refuses to leave. She’s been here through your last three clients.” What’s going on? Is there some retrograde I missed? Is my moon phase off? “Please tell me it’s not the sa—” “No, thank god. It’s not her. But she says she won’t leave until she talks to you.” “What is in the air?” I groan, throwing my head back. Am I going to have to get security or something? “She seems normal, at least. Hopefully, after you talk to her, she’ll just…leave.” “Did she say why she needed to talk to me?” “Yeah, she detailed the entire conversation she wanted to have with you before I whisked back here in a panic. No, you dummy, she refuses to say more than three words to me,” Charlie whisper-screams. She runs her talons through her thick, black hair, strands catching under the loosening crystals. Pushing up from my chair, I adjust my skirt, the elastic striking my skin with a grounding smack. “Alright.” The early evening light casts the shop in an amber glow, rainbow reflections from the crystals transforming my favorite place into a kaleidoscope. I scan across the variety of tables Charlie, Elliot, and I thrifted when cobbling this place together, fondness spreading through my chest. Then my eyes land on a woman I’ve never seen before. At least, I think I haven’t? She’s decked out in head-to-toe color. Her ice-blonde hair is short and curled, almost 50s-style, and she looks about my age, maybe a little older. But something about her seems familiar in the oddest sense of the word.
