I’m Mahogany Rose, a lover of all things creative. I have enjoyed literature since adolescence. There has always been something captivating and special about storytelling. From a very young age I found myself scribbling, doodling and exploring the joys of notebook paper. The ablity the pages had to hold space without judgement. It was then what I would describe as my safe space to land. Years later and a little self re-discovery and the truth was still just that. Unlike my the lines in my composition notebooks, the stories I write now are meant for broad sharing. *Not to just be pass around in middle/high school hallways.* Writing, for me now, is more than pages, or a dream that isn’t within reach. It is travel, it is inheritance, it is the art of taking back what was forbidden and building a legacy.

The world you’re entering is the Mahogany Rose Literary Universe (MRLU). A globe of stories spun from love, ache, and ancestral bloom. Within it lies the Dominion of Saint Eva Marie, a sovereign country of the soul. Every novel its own adventure. Every chapter an aesthetic, ready to engulf you. Every reader (you), a traveler collecting stamps of its heart. My work is a celebration of Black legacy, divine femininity, and poetic drama. It is sultry and ancestral, tender and raw. The CAKES series, beginning with Cream, is just the first flight. From island escapes like Mulancia, to ancestral corridors like Garden of Shadows, to the glittering streets of Sugarglass, each book is a new destination in the Dominion. If you are here, Beloved, then your seat has already been reserved. Pack your heart. Collect your stamps. And let us depart together, into stories that bruise and bloom, ache and heal, but always return us to the truth of being seen.

Welcome aboard. The Dominion awaits.
