Darie McCoy is an independent author of contemporary, interracial and paranormal/shifter romance books.  A reader first, she enjoys reading books across many genres although romance holds a special place in her heart.  Her experience working in a STEM field offers her a unique perspective which she uses in each story she pens. 
 
Her first novel, For Real, began as a short story written for a reader competition during an Authors and Readers conference.  It was published in November of 2021.  To date, she’s published three novels, a novella and has an active serial on Kindle Vella.
 
When she doesn’t have her nose in a book or her fingers on the keyboard, Darie enjoys working in her vegetable garden.  A serial hobbyist, she also enjoys knitting, sewing, baking and canning.  One of her favorite treats to make is salted caramel popcorn.  Amongst her friends, she’s known to transport the sweet treat in large quantities to share whenever they get together. 
 
Born and raised in the south, Darie stands by the staunchly held southern sentiments that the best tea is sweet tea and college football is life.
