Embrace, Entangled's new adult imprint, is seeking fresh, strong voices that capture the emotions and complexities of characters straddling the line between high school and the adult world of work and family. Our ideal protagonists are 18-24 years old, and still finding their way to adulthood, separating from their parents, heading off to college, and/or experiencing full-time employment for the first time, all the while searching for love. We are looking for books told from the point of view of the emerging adult, defining a critical period of decision making and growth. 

Embrace is looking for engaging voice and bold, fresh stories in the following genres:

  • Contemporary
  • Suspense/Thrillers
  • Near-future science fiction with social undercurrents
  • Historical 
  • Fantasy
  • Paranormal

Submission Guidelines:

  • 40K – 100K words in length
  • a strong romantic subplot is a must
  • M/F, M/M, F/F or any romance between two people
  • Diverse characters are welcomed and encouraged!
  • Heat levels ranging from sweet to sultry
  • POV may be single or dual, 1st person or 3rd person
