I've readied my partial for Harlequin Superromance, taking the time to clean it up a bit in terms of swearing. But it does have some violence in it. My MC flees an abusive relationship and the prologue covers that...in some detail. He beats her up and she runs. Then the story starts. I'm not sure how well that's going to be recieved. Though my synopsis spelled it out and so did my query letter and they still requested it.
Any advice? It's been years since I've read Harlequin books.
I know, I know...I haven't even sent it out and I'm already stressing out!!
