About

Muse
Brown Skin- A Dangerous Kind of Love

By Geri Cohen Biddy

What happens when the man you want only meets you in the shadows?
When your body is worshiped, but your worth is never claimed?

Muse is a raw, poetic memoir loosely based on real events from the author’s life—a story of falling for someone who could never love you fully… and choosing to rise anyway.

For six chaotic, passionate, and addictive years, Muse was entangled in a connection that blurred the line between pleasure and pain. Told in bold prose, journal-style reflections, and emotionally rich flashbacks, Muse captures the ache of almost being loved, the confusion of being desired but never prioritized, and the reckoning that comes with finally walking away.

This is not a conventional love story.
This is a testimony.

A testimony to the women who gave too much and got too little.
To the ones who stayed too long.
To the ones who loved deeply and lost themselves in the process.

Loosely inspired by Geri’s own experiences, Muse dives into the kind of love that’s intoxicating but unsustainable—and the strength it takes to let go.

Inside these pages, you’ll find:


  • A visceral, unfiltered account of loving a man who loved music more

  • Poetic snapshots of sensuality, heartbreak, and emotional survival

  • The transformation that only happens when you finally choose yourself

  • A behind-the-scenes look at being the woman behind the song—but never the story

You’ll cry.
You’ll rage.
You’ll nod in recognition.
And by the last page, you’ll remember just how powerful it is to become the author of your own healing.

Because Muse isn’t just about Brown Skin.
It’s about you.
It’s about us.

This is the last time you’ll beg to be chosen.
And the first time you’ll write yourself free.

Praise for this book

MUSE was written is a style so unique, fusing narrative with poetry. It almost reads like a song, a vibe, a musical ode to love... think "Brown Sugar". 'Muse' is a lover girl entangled with the likes of 'Brown Skin', who's only knows how to show his affection through notes and melodies, deep in the throws of a forever situationship. So many of us have been there, and so many of us have found ourselves just as stuck in the cycle as these two were. In this story of true events, you follow their love story through the highs and lows, the back and forth, the love-me and love-me-nots of the main characters. And witness love lost, grief, and the return of self journeys. I found this story to be endearing and relatable for anyone who has ever loved someone more than they loved themselves and were afraid to let go, because it hurt less to stay. I am excited to see what's next for the remaining books in the M.U.S.E. series!
