What Helen is looking for
Helen represents Adult (and select YA) genre fiction. She is presently open to Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Romance, Horror, Thriller, Action & Adventure and YA Fantasy. She enjoys almost all romance tropes and loves dark romance, but consent is important. She DOES NOT want to read about affairs or abuse in any genre. (Her husband likes her to add here that this is nothing to do with him, she just doesn’t like sad stories). She is drawn to high heat romances, but loves everything from Sarah Hawley to Lillian Lark to Patricia Briggs to Nalini Singh.
