Toni Michelle is a 38-year-old African American author of the book series; Money Is The Motive: The Tori Leigh Chronicles. Toni was born and raised in Tampa, Florida. As a single mother of 3, Toni's passion is not only to write but to inspire other independent black authors not to give up on their dreams. Toni started writing the series “Money Is The Motive” in 2011 but did not publish them until February of 2016. Why? Because fear and doubt held her back, but with the help of friends and family Toni found the courage to publish her books independently and let the world see her hidden talent. Money is the Motive is very edgy, taboo, full of drama and suspense and well worth the read, as it never disappoints! Who can you trust when Money Is The Motive?!
