Mira and Jaya's 6-week mission: to explore the strange new world of a STEM-themed gingerbread competition—not to fall in love. Oops. 🖖 Star Trek fangirls 🏳️‍🌈 Nerdy sapphic romance 🌊 Quirky coastal town 🎶 Passive aggressive K-pop references #PitBLK #YA #R #FP #LGBT #MH #ND

CHOLE BROWN X HOW TO FAIL AT FLIRTING Iris has avoided love as an unnecessary distraction, but when a cute diver at the aquarium draws a heart on the glass, her heart skips a beat. She has to overcome her previous notions about love or lose the love of her life. #PitBLK #A #RC

Given x Black sapphic punk A hot bassist and frontwoman 🎸 A shy new drummer 🥁 Battle of the bands 🎤 College parties 🎉 Mutual pining 👀 20-something coming of age 🫂 A strong case of senioritis 🎓 Love at first note 💕 Commission: @/A14PoemMedley #PitBLK #YA #GN #R #CR #LGBT

Risk-averse, grumpy romantic Jaliyah Evans wants to live on her own terms. When she meets her sunshiny TikTok influencer crush Damon Zhao in person, sparks fly & long-distance “friendship” begins. Is love worth the risk when it's 1K miles away? #PitBLK #A #CR #R #RC #LGBT #IRMC

Checking #pitBLK throughout the day looking for contemporary romance with strong characters and lots of steam. If I retweet your pitch, please send your submission here: harlequin.submittable.com/submit/236826/…

Paramore x Black queer punk Nina is totally NOT freaking out that the new drummer makes her heart thump. And Sage is absolutely NOT checking out her new bandmate. To win battle of the bands, they must overlook these feelings before things go too far. #PitBLK #YA #GN #R #CR #LGBT
