Qiang needs a wife. Fast. As the new and contested chief of the Texas lightning catchers, a people able to harness the raw energy of lightning, he’s discovering that leadership comes at a terrible price. Half the people see him as a liberator, the other half just wants him dead. A fight’s coming and he needs to be prepared. A partner might help, but only if she’s tough, smart and…well…let’s be honest here, a little desperate. He knows just the woman. Recent MBA grad Kerri Torres-Hu needs a job yesterday. When her childhood crush offers her a position in the boardroom and the bedroom, she needs to decide if a marriage of convenience is worth the risk to her life and her heart. Both hang in the balance.

Juan Acampo has been running from his past for a long time. A lightning catcher unwilling to use his powers, he’s learned to avoid his kind at all costs. Usually. Then he meets a ridiculous woman standing in the middle of the road. A traveling singer and a mistress of the guitar, Rachel doesn’t need any more headaches. She’s been good at avoiding them too, until she needs a favor from a fellow lightning catcher. It all goes downhill from there. What starts as a ride into the next town leads them on a shared and dangerous journey. In order to survive, they must work together and choose between his powers, her past and their future.

When Jessica left the farm to start over in the city, she had her future all laid out. Too bad her plan for success went from super awesome to complete crap in twenty seconds, and all because of that stupid lightning catcher, Scott Ares. He looked a lot different from their small town days, all suited up and stuff, and it’s not necessarily a bad look… The only thing standing between Scott and his plan to destroy his father is Jessica Freaking Solak. The nerd he knew then and the tattooed motorcycle riding chick in front of him now couldn’t be more different. Still, she’s in the way and has gotta go. Although, it shouldn’t cause too much drama if he kissed her once or twice first. This is a standalone novella following the Gormly Clan.
