The Shadow Girl (Paperback)

Paperback. Lily Montgomery was the girl in the background, the 'little sister, ' and the reliable shoulder for Brooks Sterling to lean on every time his golden-girl girlfriend broke his heart. For years, she played the role of the shadow, waiting for a light that never turned her way. But one summer in the Pacific Northwest changed everything. Lily returns to Crestview High unrecognizable, with a sharp new edge and a voice that finally knows how to say 'no.' The oversized hoodies are gone, replaced by a girl who doesn't flinch when Brooks tries to slide back into her life. Suddenly, the boy who only saw her as a backup is desperate to win her over, and school queen Margo Vance is determined to crush the girl who dared to step out of line. Caught between her brother's expectations and Brooks's manipulative charm, Lily finds an unexpected ally in Jett, who saw her worth long before the transformation. As old secrets surface and social wars ignite, Lily must decide if her new self is a shield or a breakthrough. In a world that wants her to stay invisible, she's finally ready to take center stage. The Shadow Girl is a powerful story of reclaiming your narrative and discovering that the most important opinion is your own. This item is printed on demand.
