Where the Shadows Dance

A memoir, available now.


He got sober. I got broken.

Dana Killion’s debut memoir lays bare the slow drip of trauma as she fought to save the man she loved, and in the process, became collateral damage in his self-destruction.

Where the Shadows Dance recalls Dana’s vulnerable yet courageous fight for family, her husband’s sobriety, and herself as she stepped away from the shadow cast by his pain. This raw dive into Dana’s personal life is for every woman who has set aside her life for the needs of another. It is a story of secrecy and what happens when we face a life based on illusion.

It would be easy to say that Where the Shadows Dance is a story about a marriage, but in reality, marriage is simply the setting. It is a story about what we do for love, what we do because of love, how love can break us, how love can save us, and how the most important love is the love we feel for ourselves, because without it, no other love can ever be as rich.
