Messaged through QT thanking her for her time and asking if there was something specific I could work on, very nice response saying she just had difficulty selling fae stories in the adult space.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to consider_____. While there were elements of your pitch that I enjoyed, in the end, I do not have the enthusiasm for this project to be the right person to champion it forward. Please keep in mind that publishing is highly subjective, so what doesn't work for me will work for someone else. Keep querying and writing, and I believe you will find every success in your publishing journey.

FR: Somewhat personalized, mentioned the core of my story being a second-chance romance as difficult for her. Bummer, I had high hopes for a reader at least.
