Advance Review/Reader Copy (ARC) Reviewers
Hello Potential ARC
Reviewer...
We’re thrilled that
you would be interested in reviewing our paranormal/historical Romantasy, I
Am the White Horse.
The Story
The story is driven
by a young Indian woman called Little Dove of the Tohono O’odham nation, her magical white horse, and James, the Irish immigrant she
falls in love with during the late Victorian era in the Old West (Weird West
genre?). Their close friends are Eagle Eyes of the Chiricahua Apache nation,
and Comba, a freed African slave. Bent on destroying them all is Lady Athena
Templeton, a complex, self-destructive villainess who mobilizes a criminal army
against them.
Fated Mates
The main trope is Fated Mates, not only for the protagonists, but for
secondary characters, as well, as their love stories resonate with the main
romance. (Please see “Tropes”)
HEA, 4/5 Heat Level
The story is HEA (happily ever after) and has many twists and turns, shocking
surprises, haunting battle scenes, the spectral and mystical, humor, and delicious
lovemaking (4/5 chili peppers by romance.io), but the main focus is on family,
tolerance and love.
Professional Review
Professional reviewer, Denise
Donaldson, of Reader Views Editorial (please see “Media Reviews”) wrote a rave
review of the book as part of a literary awards competition, and a dozen readers
have written glowing reviews, as quoted on the website.
Official Publication Date
The book is printed, but the official publication date is Dec 1,
2026, with the main campaign starting after Jan 1, 2027. Your ARC Reviews
cannot be posted until publication date on Goodreads, Amazon, The StoryGraph and other
outlets. The book is for sale on this website to individuals right now, but not to retail
outlets until the publication date.
What an ARC Reviewer May Wish to Comment On
We would appreciate
it if the ARC reviewer would comment on the story, narrative and characters, world-building, magic,
paranormal elements (supernatural), historical accuracy, fantasy, tropes and
anything else you feel is pertinent. In this book, the main trope is Fated
Mates in a slow-burn story, with Native Indian and Immigrant Irishman leads. It
features a magical protector, a White Horse, and a 4/5 spice level with loving,
caring, tender lovemaking.
Your Expectations as an ARC Reviewer
If accepted, you
will receive a digital ARC (ePub or PDF, distributed to you by BookSirens or

after (not before) our December 1, 2026 launch day. There is no compensation
for reading and reviewing the book, but, if you live in the United States, we
would be happy to send you a free printed Illustrated Edition copy of the book.
