Lost in Shadows

By John J. Mac Donald

Tara was dying.
Not in a dramatic or heroic way. Just slowly, painfully, and without answers.

Then she met Austin.

He was not supposed to change anything. He was just a boy who held her when the nightmares came, who gave her flowers when she felt invisible, and who treated her like she still had a future.

Tara is smart, stubborn, and quietly funny. She loves books, argues with her parents, and pretends she is fine far better than she actually is. She is also wasting away from an unknown illness, and she hears a voice in her head that taught her how to summon small, glowing creatures to chase the shadows from her closet.

When a violent cult begins hunting her, Tara is forced to make an impossible choice. Stay in a world that is killing her, or risk everything on a chance at something more.

With the help of a mysterious FBI agent, Tara and her family cross into a strange new world filled with magic, dragons, found family, and the possibility of healing. Starting over is never easy, and Tara must decide whether she is strong enough to fight for a life she never believed she deserved.

Lost in Shadows is a character driven fantasy novel about love, recovery, and choosing to live when giving up feels easier.

Perfect for readers who enjoy emotional fantasy, slow burn romance, and second chance stories where hope grows quietly, but stubbornly, in the dark.
