If We Shadows

Born female, all Jordan wants is to slip under the radar and live the last year of high school as a boy. His parents and siblings support him, but he'd rather be recognized for his acting and musical talents than his gender issues.


When Shakespeare's Puck gives him three magical potions-true sight, true seeming, and true love-Jordan discovers being true to himself isn't as simple as he thought.


Jordan must navigate the confusion of first love, a controversial role in the fall musical, and his transgender identity, while fairy magic creates a net of complications over everything he does. In order to unweave the spells laid over his friends-his supportive older brother, James, his playwright friend, Pepper, and Maria, another transgender student-Jordan needs to understand exactly how far he'll go to reach his goals of finding true love, true sight, and true seeming.
