Urban Romance Novel Ghostwriting

Job ID: 39895325

Budget: $15 – $25 USD

I have the outline of a love story set in a contemporary city where two long-time friends wrestle with unspoken feelings until fate finally forces them to acknowledge their love. What I need is a complete novel that unfolds this journey in a third-person narrative, capturing a romantic, almost dreamy atmosphere without slipping into melodrama.

You will take the core premise—years of mutual confusion leading to a heartfelt revelation—and expand it into a full-length work (roughly 60–80 k words, but I’m open to your recommendation for ideal pacing). The city backdrop should feel alive: cafés, late-night walks, bustling streets, and skyline views that mirror the characters’ internal conflicts. I want readers to sense the magic of modern urban life while following believable emotional arcs.

Key points I’d like to see:
• Nuanced character development that shows their hesitation, miscommunications, and gradual awakening.
• Vivid city descriptions woven naturally into the story rather than heavy exposition.
• A clear turning-point scene where both realise their feelings, followed by a satisfying, hopeful ending.
• Original work only—no AI-generated text or recycled plots.

I will provide any additional character sketches or scene ideas once we start, and I’m happy to review your draft in stages so we can fine-tune tone and pacing together. If you love crafting gentle, heartfelt romance and can keep readers floating in that dreamy mood while still grounding the plot in a realistic urban setting, let’s bring this story to life.
