about the book
A modern love story about the most expensive thing we keep giving away for free. Maya has an idea to fix social media. Only, no one listens long enough to understand it. Not until a Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas. Not until Sean walked up to her booth. In a convention center where thousands competed for his attention, she got his with a zap. Now they have to decide if they believe in the idea. And in each other. Enough to risk everything to build it.
letter from the author
what to expect
Fast, cinematic, dialogue-driven. Short scenes you fly through, a romance that takes its time. Behind closed doors. You may unexpectedly learn about tech like Bitcoin and Nostr too, but it won't hurt.
