ARC Opportunities October 3, 2025

 

If you are looking for a new author/your next read consider being an ARC reader/reviewer I have been doing a lot of ARC reads this year and finding a lot of new to me authors with amazing books that don't always get the hype that the more popular authors get.  

Leaving reviews matter especially for Indie authors the more reviews that a book has the more it gets shown to others as an option to read.  

Thank you for supporting Indie Authors ðŸ’“

If you are an author with an upcoming ARC opportunity and want me to place it in my next ARC opportunities blog post let me know!  

I've added good reads links for if you are interested in the book but can't commit to the ARC read and review timelines.   These ARC opportunities were taken from the authors original posts.

No one believes she deserves to be a rider. Except for him. But he may be her greatest threat of all.

Zaydah has dreamed her whole life of becoming a rider of the creatures in the sky. In a kingdom always at war, there’s no greater honor than joining their ranks. She and her best friend, Brev, have trained every day for the last ten years to earn their place and follow in their fathers’ footsteps.

In the Black Mountains, where the military sprawls over its hilltop base, not everyone remembers their fathers as heroes. The king has forbidden their last names to be spoken aloud. Enemies won’t forget the wrongs of decades past.

Zaydah and Brev vow to watch each other’s backs and do whatever they can to succeed. They’ve always been an unstoppable team, and neither of them can trust anyone.

But secrets thrive in the Black Mountains. Nothing can prepare Zaydah for what she’ll uncover, and everything could tear her and Brev apart, most of all, the prince and his unusual interest in Zaydah.

Mia Anderson's camera has captured the biggest stars in Hollywood, but it's been years since she felt a real spark behind the lens. Burnt out and questioning her choices, she retreats to her picturesque hometown of Willow Creek for the summer, hoping to rekindle her passion for photography.

She doesn't expect to run into Jason Lawson, her childhood best friend, now running the local animal shelter with a dedication that both inspires and bewilders her. As Mia rediscovers the joy in her art by helping Jason's rescue efforts, their friendship rekindles into something deeper, forcing her to question everything she thought she wanted.

But just as Mia finds herself falling for Jason and the charms of small-town life, a dream job offer from LA forces her to choose between the glittering career she's worked so hard for and a life filled with purpose and love in Willow Creek.
Set against the backdrop of warm summer nights, charming small-town festivals, and lovable furry friends, "Summer Nights in Willow Creek" is a heartwarming tale of second chances, self-discovery, and the courage to follow your heart. Will Mia find the perfect shot of happiness, or will her chance at true love fade like an overexposed photograph?

Sometimes, you have to go back to where you started to find where you truly belong.

Somewhere in the Dark 🌌

ðŸŠĶCOMING 2026ðŸŠĶ

There are much worse things than dying.

ðŸĐķ

Growing up, I had always expected to find my escape outside of that trailer. Away from the screams that echo through the halls, away from the covered up bruises and hollow apologies. But life had other plans, dragging me back into the nightmare of my childhood home. And now I find myself torn between keeping my mother safe from the monster who haunts the house and finding freedom in the arms of a long lost childhood friend who is fighting his own ghosts.

ðŸĐķ

My name is Nova Harper, and I promise you there are much worse things than dying.

Two worlds. One storm.
Can we survive the chaos—or will it consume us both?


My goals were simple, even if my life wasn’t. My world was black and white and straight lines.
That is, until Risha Verma crashed into it. With her radiance, creative expression, and that burning chemistry, she enveloped me to my core.
She gives me closure I didn’t know I needed. She makes me a better man; I didn’t realize I wanted to be. And, she opens my eyes to a world I didn’t know I yearned for.

My life was a struggle between control, peace, and independence. I was trapped between the weight of expectations and dreams of an elusive future. Breaking free would brand me rebellious, while every mistake would carve my present. I live in two one I can’t escape, and one I can never fully claim.
That is, until I cross paths with a devastatingly gorgeous Ryan McAlister. We have nothing in common—our goals, our lives, our futures couldn’t be further apart—yet he awakens a storm I’ve fought so hard to silence. Beneath all the differences, we are alike. And he stirs a storm in me I never saw coming.
I let myself get swept into it—playing along, surrendering to its rhythm, pretending the moment could last forever. And then, everything unravels, and I realize I was never meant to belong to this storm.

The daughter of a failed rebellion. The king that unalived her father. A love that could destroy them both.

Sylvie has always lived in her sister Adria’s shadow. But at the Great Festival, she finally has her chance to step into the light: by striking down God-King Ronan, the man who destroyed her family. Adria may have led the rebellion, but Sylvie will be the one to finish it.

Ronan has spent years rebuilding a kingdom broken by the war that claimed his father and shattered his faith. But peace has come at a price. Surrounded by enemies and burdened by secrets too dangerous to reveal, he’s losing control: of his court, his magic, and maybe even himself.

The closer Sylvie gets to Ronan, the more she’s drawn to the man she vowed to unalive. Wanting him would mean betraying not just her sister, but her people and the memory of her parents. Trusting Sylvie could cost Ronan the throne—or his life. Because even if Sylvie refuses to strike, Adria won’t hesitate to finish the job.

The road to the throne runs through his heart. And only one sister will claim it.

When nerdy senior Max Carter and his best friend Lucas spot the new girl at Graybridge Academy, they immediately decide she’s definitely a vampire. Pale, always in black, carries a parasol, and those too-green eyes that don’t look…normal.
It’s a joke, obviously. A dumb, nerdy joke.

Except… she actually is.

Her name is Eris, and she’s just trying to survive the hell that is private school. After years of homeschooling by her very weird (very careful) vampire uncle, she’s been shoved into the V.I.P. cover—Vanguard Scholars, totally human, very gifted—which means half a year at Graybridge and then an early jump to college. Keep a low profile. Pass her classes. And under no circumstances bite anyone or hold eye contact too long.

Then there’s Max—local honors goblin/D&D enthusiast—who won’t stop talking to her. He’s weirdly charming in a “human disaster with flashcards” way, and Eris can’t decide if she wants to sit with him at lunch or climb out the window. Lucas is 100% convinced she’s a vampire…but only in a fun, Twilight-is-real way—and Max thinks she’s playing along.

When a rival vampire starts making trouble on campus and a string of “pranks” turns ugly, Max lands squarely in the middle, forcing Eris to choose: keep pretending to be a normal, socially awkward senior…or bite back and save the boy who’s been making her laugh for the first time in years.

Will Max ever realize he was right? Will Lucas ever stop talking about his vampire conspiracy? And will Eris actually pass algebra before she accidentally violates a few school policies—with fangs?

Blurb:

Natalie-

I'm in my final year of the forensic behavioral analysis program. My life hasn't exactly been rainbows and butterflies but if I can do anything right, it's this. Until I decide to join my roommate for a night out and everything goes south, fast. I can't let it distract me from finding the person, or people, who took my family from me. But keeping on track through additional trying times proves to be more challenging than I anticipated.

The Widow Maker-

I've spent seven years dormant, irrelevant, dead to the world. Everyone thought I ceased to exist so I rolled with it. I became a functioning member of society, I lived out my urge to devour souls without so much as a police report, setting aside my audacious displays for a quiet life. That is, until my world collided with her.

I'm caught up between needing to protect her and knowing she'll out me when she figures it out. If she figures me out. I should skip town. But my prey is ripe for the picking on a college campus. I can't let an undergrad throw me off, now. Not after so many years of making my way work for me.
