Beyond The Mural: Book One: Valorian Chronicles

When a grieving teenage artist paints a mural in her dream, she unknowingly opens a portal-and awakens an ancient war between worlds. Drawn into a realm where art holds power and shadow creatures hunt the light, Sara discovers her gift isn't just creative-it's inherited. With the help of her fierce sister Jo, a conflicted quarterback named Devin, and a secretive guardian known as Smith, she must uncover the truth behind her mother's past, the mysterious orbs that fuel the portals, and the legacy she was never meant to carry alone. As darkness rises and betrayal draws near, Sara and her companions must confront who they truly are and embrace the legacy that was set in motion. Only by standing together can they face the ancient enemies of Valoria-and protect both worlds from falling into shadow.
