Shadows Between us

Tara's world is complicated, filled with secrets and feelings she doesn't know how to handle. She's got her friends-Kira, Tina, and Emma-but everything feels off when Crystal walks into the picture. Tara can't shake the way her heart races every time Crystal smiles, but there's one problem: Crystal is completely oblivious to how Tara feels. And to make matters worse, Crystal seems to be drawn to Emma, leaving Tara stuck in a tangled mess of confusion, jealousy, and fear of rejection. Emma, on the other hand, can't deny the connection she has with Crystal, which only complicates things further.

As Tara navigates high school, skipping class, dealing with her confusing feelings, and trying to make sense of the emotions that threaten to spill over, she begins to wonder if she'll ever be able to tell Crystal how she really feels-or if she's too late. And with Emma possibly feeling something for Crystal too, Tara is left to face the reality that love might be more complicated than she ever imagined.

Love, friendship, and self-doubt collide in this story about navigating the tough moments in life while trying to figure out who you are and what you really want.
