Recent Release, "Shadows of Trust," from Newman Springs Publishing Author Tia Lopez, Explores a Woman on the Run Who Discovers That Safety May Come at an Unexpected Price

Thibodaux, LA, August 31, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Tia Lopez has completed a new book, "Shadows of Trust," a gripping tale of survival and suspicion. Claudia Duval arrives at her secluded cabin certain of one thing: someone wants her dead. With danger closing in, she needs solitude and time to uncover the truth about who is hunting her and why. The woods offer refuge, a place where she can think clearly and piece together the fragments of her fractured life. But isolation proves more complicated than she anticipated.

Lopez drew upon her extensive life experiences to craft this work, having grown up in the small town of Norwood, Colorado, where her mother's role as the local librarian nurtured her passion for storytelling. Her background—including four transformative years living in Brazil and countless travels with her family—infuses the narrative with authentic emotional depth. As an accomplished crafter and mosaic artist, she understands how seemingly disparate pieces can form a cohesive whole, a skill evident in her intricate plotting and character development.

In "Shadows of Trust," readers will discover a tale woven with tension and desire as Claudia finds herself increasingly drawn to Justin McKay, the local sheriff whose investigation threatens to expose her carefully guarded secrets. She cannot afford the distraction of his rugged charm or his persistent determination to help her. The stakes are impossibly high: her survival depends on keeping him at arm's length, yet their connection grows undeniable. Lopez masterfully explores the conflict between the protection we need and the connection we crave, forcing readers to contemplate whether trust can exist in the shadows.

From the author, "I wanted to create a story where vulnerability becomes both a weakness and a strength, where the person we most want to push away might be exactly who we need."
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Tia Lopez's suspenseful work captivates readers with its intricate blend of danger and romance. This novel will resonate with anyone who has wrestled with the question of whether opening one's heart is worth the risk.

Readers who wish to experience this enthralling work can purchase "Shadows of Trust" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
