Valley Girl - Paperback

Valerie is an artist who has lived her whole life sketching the world from the window of her mobile home. Her family tree is a blank canvas-a topic her mother refused to paint. But when a tragic accident leaves Valerie in a world drained of color, a vintage photograph from Colorado surfaces along a trail of dark secrets. Seeking the roots she never had, Valerie sets out to chase a ghost, only to discover her mother's hidden diary. The truth inside is shattering: her father is alive, but he has no idea she exists. With the clock ticking against his failing health, she's not only chasing a man she's never met, but she's also racing to find the art of forgiveness before the light fades forever. When a charming attorney named Jake offers his legal help, Valerie's trust is put to the test. As they navigate the country together, she must decide if the growing connection with this stranger is a guide to her future, or just another distraction from a past built on lies.
