Viral One Day. Forgotten the Next. But What’s the Cost?
Mia didn’t mean to go viral, but when a video meant to help spirals into overnight fame, she finds herself caught in a digital firestorm of judgment, betrayal, and pressure.
As the lines blur between who she is online and who she is in real life, Mia must fight to hold on to her truth, before it all slips away.
Beyond the Screen is a fast-paced, emotionally-charged novel for teens navigating the pressure to be seen, the temptation to be perfect, and the power of choosing real over viral.
