The spell was cast when they were children. That bond cannot be broken.
"The Lightning Charmer is full of whimsy, enchantment, ancient secrets, and dark earthy seduction . . . storytelling at its best! - Sharla Lovelace, bestselling and award-winning author of THE REASON IS YOU
In the deep hollows and high ridges of the ancient Appalachian mountains, a legacy of stunning magic will change their lives forever.
Laura is caught between the modern and the mystical, struggling to lead a normal life in New York despite a powerful psychic connection to her childhood home in North Carolina—and to the mysterious stranger who calls her name. She's a synesthete—someone who mentally "sees" and "tastes" splashes of color connected to people, emotions, and things. She's struggled against the distracting ability all her life; now the effects have grown stronger. She returns home to the mountains, desperate to resolve the obsessive pull of their mysteries.
But life in her mountain community is far from peaceful. An arsonist has the town on edge, and she discovers Ayron, scarred and tormented, an irresistible recluse who rarely leaves the forest. As her childhood memories of him surface, the façade of her ordinary world begins to fade. The knots she's tied around her heart and her beliefs start unraveling. Ayron has never forgotten her or the meaning of their astonishing bond. If his kind is to survive in modern times, he and Laura must face the consequences of falling in love.
Kathryn Magendie lives in the Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina with her weird, discombobulated dog (who is strangely like Kathryn), two much missed ghost dogs, her husband GMR (Good Man Roger), a mysterious shadowman, and many wild critters.
