Rachel Brooks has joined L. Perkins Agency as a junior agent. Rachel previously worked as an apprentice agent to Louise Fury. Louise is actively building her client list. She’s looking for all genres of young adult and new adult fiction and adult romance. She is especially interested in romantic suspense. She’s also on the lookout for fun picture books.

She’s a fan of dual point of views and has a soft spot for marketing savvy writers.
