Tryst Guidelines

Cayélle Publishing

[CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE] Romance is an omnipresence the mind has conditioned itself to view as a standard entitlement, leaving levels unexplored and others taken for granted. Dating with and without specific goals, hidden agendas, and rebounds are Trysts.

Uncertain but convincing romance. That’s Tryst.

Specifically, we want:

Moderately paced stories with chapter-ending cliffhangers.
Proven category tropes including, but not limited to, relationships of convenience, narcissist vs empath, rebounds, mail order brides, and space-fillers.
Stories featuring heroines and the everyday, relatable man who court them without clear intentions.
Romance must be the central plot. The couple should be together on almost every page.
Strong conflict. This is a major deal. Why can’t people just be clear about what they want? Why can’t people know what they want? Explore the see-saw emotions and situations that impede the due course of happily ever after.
POV should be split 50/50 between the hero and heroine. 3rd is preferable but 1st POV is acceptable. Non-primary characters should NOT have their own POV.
The heat level should be anywhere from a simmering spark to scorching.
Manuscripts must be complete at 50-75K words in length. Novellas must be complete at 40-70K words are accepted at this time.
Single or series titles
Must include query letter and brief synopsis with submission

We will not accept any submissions containing the following:

Age play/pedophilia
Bestiality. Steamy shifter sex (in human form) is welcome.
Edge play. Including, but not limited to, blood, breath, scat/urine, knife, and gun. If it’snot safe, we’re not interested.
Incest. No blood relatives, please. We do, however, accept stepsiblings, and in-laws.
Necrophilia
Rape as titillation
