What I'm Looking For
Lori Galvin represents upmarket adult fiction across genre and is actively seeking book club–friendly fiction—novels that entertain, move, and spark conversation long after the last page. I’m drawn to upmarket and plot-forward literary stories often centering women with emotional depth, memorable characters, and settings that feel as alive as the people inhabiting them. Specifically: Mystery and suspense, Multi-generational family sagas, Historical or dual-timeline novels, and Stories of resilience, and reinvention.
