**Built From Tragedy**
Mariah Mae has spent most of her life balancing two worlds: the one she dreams about and the one she was born into.
By day, she's a talented basketball player with a sharp tongue, loyal friends, and a notebook full of stories she'll never let anyone read. By night, she's trying to navigate first love, family expectations, and the kind of heartbreak that changes people.
As her seventeenth birthday approaches, the people closest to her begin pulling her in different directions. Her father is changing, her friendships are evolving, and the boy she loves may not be the person she thought he was.
With every win comes a loss, with every secret comes a consequence, and Mariah soon learns that growing up means facing truths she'd rather ignore.
*Built From Tragedy* is an emotional coming-of-age story about love, loyalty, betrayal, and the moments that shape us into who we're meant to become.
