I struggle with this too, have 3 manuscripts done but they don’t quite fit the standard romance fare, too much suspense, but not of the standard type(eg. seals or spies), so not suitable for intrigue line.
Let us know who likes it! (So I can bombard them with stuff too!)

And as I type this I think I have answered my own question – Thanks Nell – I suspect you are right. The romance is NOT the main conflict.
All I have to do now is write the book… LOL

Is the primary plot the romance or is it the intrigue of her personal puzzle?
