Publisher's summary

He got sober. I got broken.

It would be easy to say Where the Shadows Dance is a memoir about a marriage—but marriage is simply the setting. Dana Killion dives deep into 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 kind can ever be as rich.

A raw, vulnerable exploration of the damage that secrets and lies inflict, Where the Shadows Dance is a story for every woman who has set herself aside because someone else's needs seemed greater.

Even in Sobriety…

Even when sobriety is embraced, the spouses sometimes become collateral damage. This was a god read for me as my 18 year marriage is ending in divorce. The alcoholic is the one that is initiating but he’s not yet sober.

Privileged Fantasy

I listened to this book to get the perspective of what the other side of alcoholism looks like on the support side. It touched some on that and did a good job of showing how women are fixers as try to be the all for everyone. At the same time, if you are an average person, with average income working a lot, this book will frustrate you, or at least it did me. I couldn’t care less about the repeated condo with the beautiful Lake Michigan view and the house in Florida. I was looking for the reasons why she had no idea her husband was an alcoholic or cheating and how that was dealt with. While I do understand this book was to show what she did to focus on herself and it does that, but her ‘life of privilege’ makes her life expectations fairytale and unrealistic. I would not recommend this book.
