The story of a young black woman who believed she could be a published author



Hey there! 👋🏽

I’m so excited to welcome you to my blog—a space where stories meet real life, and mysteries are more than just plot twists.





If you’re a fan of thrillers, drama, and stories for people of color, you’re in the right place. My name is Manon, and I’m the author of a mystery-thriller featuring three unforgettable young women who get caught up in something way bigger than any of them imagined.







How It All Started


This book didn’t start on a computer—it started in a beat-up notebook I carried everywhere. Between working two jobs and working thought my ADHD (and dyslexia), I would jot down scenes, character ideas, and questions like: What would happen if I disappeared—and no one cared enough to look?


That question stuck with me. And that’s how my first novel was created.





Meet the Women Behind the Story

  • Madison wants to be a doctor but can't get into med school. She's smart, driven, and carrying a lot of pain she doesn't talk about.

  • Emily is already in med school—but she’s barely holding things together. Between supporting her siblings and hiding her mom’s addiction, survival comes before sleep.

  • Jackie is the one who’s “made it”—she’s a doctor already. But she’s got secrets that could destroy everything.


And when they’re abducted from a nightclub? That’s where their real story begins.



What You’ll Find Here


This blog is for readers, dreamers, and thrill-seekers. Each week, I’ll be sharing:


  • Deep dives into my characters (and maybe a few secrets I didn’t put in the book 👀)

  • Real-life issues like that I have dealt with and how it influences my work

  • My journey as a self-published author

  • Book and show recs for fellow thriller junkies

  • Sneak peaks into my next novel and my progression
