Mosaic Hearts - Paperback

by Prosee Books (Author)

Some things have to break before they can become beautiful.

Lena has always spoken in color - in jagged shards of glass, in chipped tiles rescued from forgotten places, in the quiet language of broken things pieced back together. But her art has always lived behind closed doors, hidden from a world that prizes practicality over passion.

When her school launches an ambitious community mural project, Lena sees more than an assignment - she sees her chance. To lead. To be heard. To finally open the door she's kept shut for so long.

But building something whole out of broken pieces is never simple. Family expectations press down like stone. Friendships fracture under the weight of old wounds and new truths. And the closer the mosaic comes to completion, the more Lena is forced to confront the cracks running through her own story.

Mosaic Hearts is a luminous, emotionally rich coming-of-age novel about the courage it takes to find your voice, the beauty hidden inside our deepest breaks, and the truth that the most breathtaking things in life - art, community, love - are never made from perfect pieces.

The cracks are where the color gets in.
