Ariya Monroe never planned to raise a child alone-but she never planned to fall in love either.
In 2026, Ariya was an R&B/soul singer stepping into the world of acting when she met Michael B. Jordan, the director of her breakout film. What started as a quiet, no-strings-attached situationship ended as suddenly as it began, with no promises and no goodbyes. When Ariya discovered she was pregnant, she made a choice that would change her life forever: she stayed silent.
Now in 2028, Ariya is a single mother living in Belgium, raising her daughter, Michaela Rose Monroe, surrounded by family and protected by privacy. Her world is built on routine, love, and the unshakable promise she made to put her child first-no matter the cost.
When fate brings Michael back into her life years later, the past she buried begins to surface. He doesn't know the truth. He doesn't know he's a father. And Ariya must face the question she's avoided for years: how long can a secret built out of love remain hidden?
Our Daughter, My Secret is a slow-burn, emotional romance about motherhood, missed timing, and the life a woman builds when she chooses peace over explanation-and what happens when the truth finally demands to be seen.
