Publisher Description

In a realm where shadows hold sway, love is the only light. Four destinies. Ten ingredients. One chance to save the ones they love.

Noble-born Tristan Arrington faces his most difficult challenge yet when his lover Will is lost to the sinister shadow realm. Armed with only his friends and a fierce determination, Tristan must confront not only the monsters lurking in the shadows, but also the scars of his own traumatic past.

Crown Prince Orson joins the quest to aid his friend and escape his duties but ends up facing his own mortality instead, leaving his studious younger sister to seek the answers in ancient tomes, desperate to save her brother.

As portals open between worlds and chaos threatens to engulf the land, Tristan and his band of unlikely allies discover that the greatest strength lies within. Join Tristan as he ventures beyond the veil and learn if the light of love can triumph over the shadows of fear.

Realm of Shadows weaves a tale of soul-deep love, heart-wrenching sacrifice, and the transformative power of facing one's demons. This upper YA LGBTQ+ fantasy will make you believe in the power of love, magic, and found family.

My writing is basically a warm hug wrapped in a cozy fantasy cloak ... If you enjoy laughing, crying, yelling at fictional characters, and obsessing over found families, you'll feel right at home.
