Portal Fantasy. No romance. Book One

Saving her aunt is easy. Standing up to her mother? That’s a bit harder.
Kate shouldn’t be here. Risking her mom’s wrath feels wrong. Especially for a house she can’t remember and one her mom is desperate to keep her from. But Kate can’t resist the pull of her aunt’s peculiar house that whispers welcome home. Or the strange, forgotten memories of a magical childhood summer that start to surface once inside.
Seeking solace, she decides to stay in the house for just a few days. But as time passes, unexplainable events blur the line between real and impossible. The line erodes even further after Kate stumbles upon her missing aunt’s hidden journal filled with tales of perilous adventures and doors to other worlds. Soon secrets are revealed: truths about her family, her past, and an ability she isn’t ready to claim.
When a powerful creature rips through dimensions to threaten Kate’s already fragile reality, she is stunned to learn her aunt may be alive. Held captive for knowledge that could end all worlds, Kate just may be the key to saving her.
