The Republic of McCoy Is Now on Kindle+

The Republic of McCoy is now on Kindle+ (formerly Kindle Unlimited), so you can read it free.

Neon streets, a Republic that thinks it owns her, and a slow-burn romance she never planned on. It’s neon-noir cyberpunk with hope at its core, and Marlowe’s story is the one I’ve spent the last few years living inside.

He slid onto the stool beside her, catching the unnatural red glow in her eyes.

“Hey, gorgeous. Buy you a drink?”

A smile curled across her lips.

“Depends,” she purred. “Are you offering me one… or volunteering to be one?”

“Astraea,” he said, so slowly and breathtakingly that Astraea bit down on her lip to keep from saying something stupid like, “You say it so lovely. Say it again.” He rolled her name around before adding, “What a beautiful name.”

Free Review Copies of The Republic of McCoy

The Republic of McCoy is out, and I have a limited number of free review copies up on BookSirens for readers who’d like to read it and leave an honest review.

Marlowe takes a security job at Cleancore Industries to cover her rent, and it turns into something else: guarding Trevor Ledeus, heir to the company. The job comes with a helmet she doesn’t take off, a number where her name should be, and one condition. ID 7 does not show her face. Trevor asks for her real name anyway.

Cleancore builds the machines that clear the debris fields. The machines are built from the dead. It’s legal.

It’s a neon-noir cyberpunk novel with a slow-burn romance, and a story about love, loss, and the name she keeps to herself.

🎶 Curious what I listened to while writing McCoy? Here’s the McCoy playlist.

One Day Left: The Republic of McCoy

Tomorrow, The Republic of McCoy is out in the world.

It’s a neon-noir cyberpunk story set in a city that runs on its machines. Marlowe is a woman who has watched people she loves become part of that machinery, and she refuses to let it happen to her. The quote above is her, standing her ground. It’s one of my favorite moments in the book.

This book has been a long time coming, and it’s strange and wonderful to finally be one day out.

Where to find it on October 15:

Thank you for following along on this journey. See you on the other side of launch day.

What I Listened to While Writing The Republic of McCoy

I can’t write without music. Every chapter of The Republic of McCoy had a song playing behind it, some of them on repeat for weeks, and by the time I finished, the list had grown to 43 tracks.

Twenty of them are listed in the front of the book. The full playlist, every song I wrote to, is here: The Republic of McCoy: Full Playlist

If you only listen to one, make it “Krazy” by Seal.
