We are open to cozy and/or humorous mysteries, amateur sleuth stories, procedurals, historical mysteries and contemporary PIs with or without romantic elements. Minimum word count for this category is 70,000 and up. For mysteries with romantic elements, we’re looking for stories that end in an HEA or HFN. Trilogies and duologies wherein the first and/or second book end in cliffhangers are permitted as long as the primary romantic arc ultimately ends in an HEA or HFN.
