Description
By day she's Lucy Tempest, civil engineer major. By night, or whenever she has time not studying, doing projects, or maintaining a social life... She's Lady Lightning, half of the dynamic duo the Storm Siblings. *** Following the legacy of their parents Captain Storm and Lady Frost, Lucy and her brother Lucas once shared the dream of ending crime in St. Jerome as the heroic Storm Siblings. But while Lucy grew out of childhood fantasies and chose to go to college in a new city, Luke couldn't seem to turn off his super hero mode. Lucy wants to find ways to fight evil without her mask on, but Luke seems to think that real heroes don't use city maps and roads to get the work done. The compromise? Lucy stretches her double life even thinner to keep her brother content and prove that heroes don't always wear masks. She'll battle book reports and baddies, navigate a budding romance, and build friendships with the most unlikely people. When a series of seemingly unrelated incidents spiral their city into chaos, Lucy's beliefs about who takes what identity in the fight between good vs. evil begin to waver. The villain she's been told to despise because of his mask suddenly becomes the one person who can help stop a madman from burning St. Jerome to the ground. Relationships forged in the black-and-white world of super heroism are tested as the world behind her own mask begins to appear more grey than she ever thought possible. As she confronts the demons hiding in the hearts of good and bad alike, Lucy must draw her line in the sand and fight for what she believes is right, even if it tears apart everything she worked so hard to create as Lady Lightning.
