Hey! My literary fiction novel, Too Close to Home, is complete at approximately 55k, and I need help with edits before querying. I'm currently unemployed and trying to stay vigilant with my money, but if there's anyone offering free services, even in exchange for an honest review, it would help me SO much. I've been working on this book for almost five years.
Blurb: In 2004, Caspian Fox returns to his hometown, Havenwood, Alabama for the first time in four years, reluctantly attending his family’s annual reunion. He’s unprepared for the arrival of his estranged sister, Shanna—struggling with painkiller addiction and the ghosts of their shared past. As Caspian’s stay endures, long-buried childhood memories begin to resurface, forcing him to confront the trauma he’s spent decades holding inside.
When he tries to flee Havenwood and his past, a crisis halts him: Shanna’s spiraling addiction leads to a near-fatal overdose. Her brush with death forces Caspian to face the painful truths he’s avoided for too long—about his family, his past, and himself.
