YA Urban Romance Story - 17/03/2026 23:22 EDT

I need a fresh, original romance written for a young-adult readership and set squarely in a modern-day city. The tone should feel current and authentic—think smartphones, street cafés, public transport, weekend gigs—while still delivering the kind of swoon-worthy emotional arc that keeps YA readers turning pages. Here is what I’m expecting: • A complete, unpublished story (short-story or novella length—feel free to suggest the ideal word count) delivered as an editable Word or Google Docs file. • Two relatable lead characters whose chemistry develops believably, with conflict and resolution appropriate for teens and early-twenties readers. • Contemporary dialogue, minimal profanity, closed-door intimacy (nothing explicit). • A brief, separate synopsis that I can use for blurb or back-cover copy. All work must be 100 % original—no AI-generated or recycled material—and I’ll require full rights upon payment. If this sounds like your kind of project, tell me in a sentence or two how you’d approach the plot or setting, and include a YA sample if you have one.
