to Critique Partner Matchup

I'm looking for critique partners for 75k my adult fantasy. It's my second book and a late draft. The blurb is below. I'm experienced in beta reading but not good at hyperviolent or pure romance novels.

I'm only looking for critique partners. Betas, especially paid services are not what I'm after.

When 10-year-old Angelica’s family died in a fire, Goddess Regina embraced her and promised to bring them back. As Angelica waited for their turn to be revived, Regina sent her numerous letters and gifts, worrying that she would be crying alone. Angelica got infatuated with the mother goddess. Earning her place near Regina became Angelica’s dream. Competing against Her countless devotees, she endured 8 years of hardships to be chosen as a palace guard.

One day at work, however, Angelica learns Regina’s secrets. Her resurrection miracle is an illusion the Church made up. Unable to confess this to grieving families, Regina is suffering from guilt and loneliness, thinking no one would love Her without the illusion.

Angelica must expose the truth to free Regina from their exploitation and show Her that many will adore Her true self. Despite the Church’s attempts on her life, Angelica collects evidence for a grand exposé. Regina’s freedom comes within reach, however Angelica now has to tell the bereaved that their dead loved ones can’t be brought back.
