Young Adult First-Love Romance Manuscript

I’m commissioning a new young-adult romance that captures the exhilaration, awkwardness, and intensity of first love. The final manuscript should read smoothly for a teen audience—relatable dialogue, vivid emotion, age-appropriate conflict—while still feeling fresh and memorable to adults who enjoy YA.

The specific sub-genre is flexible. Whether you lean contemporary, historical, or even add a light paranormal twist, the core must stay centered on that first-love heartbeat and the discoveries that come with it. I’m happy to discuss setting, tone, and comparable titles with you once you pitch your initial concept.

Deliverables
• High-level story outline (act structure, main arcs, key turning points)
• Full draft manuscript (word count proposed in your bid)
• One round of focused revisions after my editorial feedback

Please highlight previous YA or romance work in your message so I can get a feel for your voice.
