I have a book that I suspect may be a hard sell:
Contemporary, Christian, Male-Male Romance meets SF thriller. The MC is very religious, and throughout the book, is struggling to reconcile that with his religious beliefs. I've done one round of querying so far. Got a full request from Deidre Knight that turned into rejection and about 11 other agent rejections. The book is currently out with Nine Star Press. However, I'm revising my submission package and am almost ready for another round of submissions. I can't find anything on MSWL that directly fits this - in fact, a lot of people who want LGBT+ don't want
Christian fiction, and some publishers who want Christian fiction don't want LGBT.
I am wondering if anyone had any recommendations for agents or publishers I could submit it to. For this project, I am open to either agents or directly submitting to a publisher.
