Left to right.

Top Row: Playing cards that spell out LOVE. A martini glass with a clear drink, dice, and a floating candle inside. A Queen of Hearts card with its eyes scribbled out.

Middle Row: Stairs and an elevator with moody red lighting. “Life is a gamble.” An eerie red hallway with many doors and chandeliers.

Bottom Row: A joker card with a demon on it. A beverage being poured into a glass. Playing cards that are three 6s.

🌊🔥Mulan meets Avatar: The Last Airbender… but make it an adult romantasy. 🌪️ Forbidden elemental magic 🎭 Hidden identity ⚔️ Military training ❤️‍🔥 Slow-burn romance 👀 A dangerously perceptive commanding officer ✨ SONG OF THE SICKLE ✨ #QuestPit #Q #A #F #R

Song of the Sickle, an adult romantic fantasy, 115,000 words, first in a planned series by Megan A. Saraceno

The pitch: She’s hiding her name, her past, her power.
He sees through her every lie.

Rejected by the gods, Tessa Whitaker brands a false divine seal into her flesh and steals her brother’s identity to save him from a war he won’t survive. But when her emotions manifest unblessed elemental magic, she catches the attention of her dangerously perceptive commanding officer. If he uncovers her secrets, execution will be the least of her problems.

She can survive the war.
She’s not sure she can survive him.

Comps A Fate Inked in Blood, Silver Elite, The Knight and the Moth

Opening lines: Tomorrow, the gods would judge me.
Tonight, I pretended they didn’t exist.

I swung the scythe through another row of wheat. My shoulders screamed, but at least the burn was honest. More honest than twenty years of prayers that had earned me nothing but silence.
Sweat carved tracks through the chaff dusting my skin, but I kept moving. One more row. One more bundle. Anything to keep my thoughts off tomorrow and the bare stretch of skin on my forearm waiting to be claimed., pictures include: military training camp, earth magic, amber ring, abandoned watchtower, and incense

First Graphic:

An Oil Painting of a woman sprawled over a man lying on a chaise. Depiction of Romeo & Juliet.

Book Title: My Sweet Unbecoming
A Forbidden Gothic Romance
Coming to agent inboxes September 2026

Second Graphic:

An Oil Painting of a woman staring deeply into a canvas. The art on the canvas is a man in uniform standing as the muse.

Comps and Pitch
Jane Eyre
The Viscount Who Loved Me
The Phantom Of The Opera

When a scandal exiles her to Lucerne, disgraced Olivia Rooney falls for the one man she’s forbidden to love—Théodore Chair-Beaumont, the brooding aristocrat sworn to matrimony with another.
But beneath his restraint lies a wound that mirrors her own. And falling for him could not only repeat the tragedy that broke him once before. It could ruin her reputation, once and for all.

Third Graphic:

Tropes.

Forbidden Romance.
High Society Match Making.
European Setting.
Slow Burn.
Love VS Duty.
Black Swan-esque Awakening.
Masquerade Ball.
2000’s Setting.
Obsessive Yearning.
Secret Lake Meetings.

Fourth Graphic:

Snippets:

His hunger transcends anything as simple as lust. A perfect replica of my own.
Our appetite goes beyond the physical. What we starve for is not the body, but the soul.
Spirits, which I'm certain, have known each other for millennia—longing and finding one another, again and again against all odds.
Nothing can come between what is immaterial.
Even less so when it is destined
A divine homecoming.
He is the vessel of my existence. The missing half that completes me. There is no him without me. And without him, there is no me.
-
And how do I tell him I'd gladly crawl beneath his armor, inside his clothes and past his skin? Fight myself through sinews and bone, every ligament and essence that makes him him, and live on solely to keep his soul free of any pain?
Caretaker of his soul for eternity.
-
A touch, as soft as a feather.
The dull edges of fingernails.
Deliberate and as exquisitely slow as molasses.
I arch into these luxuries like a cat wanting for more.
Hum at the whispery strokes as they comb through my scalp, down my hair, in pursuit of my jaw and finally my décolleté.
I know it's him.
Scent him like a vampire would sweet blood.
