Lila Felix has blown me away...With Lightning in my Wake, she has created a unique, intriguing world that draws the reader in to the complex and dynamic storyline featuring some fascinating characters.We begin by meeting Colby Evans.  She calls herself a flasher and when I first read it, I died laughing.  Of course it isn't the type of flasher that you are thinking about right now, but she has the ability to flash from one place to another like lightning.  What an awesome power to have!! I would soooo die to have it...My commutes would be so much better as well as being about to travel anywhere in the world any time I please?? OH YES!!!But, this isn't all that is so great about her...She is one spunky woman...I absolutely love her strength, her huge heart, her sass, her humor, and her vulnerability.  She is a force to be reckoned with and I adored reading about her...But it was the compelling relationship with Theo that kept me glued to the pages.  When you meet him, be ready ladies...this guy is remarkable.  He captured my heart immediately and that was just after reading his email to Colby.  OMG!! I knew right away he was going to a heart-stopper...And boy was her ever...And these two together?? Be still my beating heart...The sparks flew off the pages and the chemistry was explosive...Two souls couldn't have been more perfect for each other yet they were so different.  They complimented each other and provided the ideal relationship of compromise that so many people need.*sighs*So, while I was awing over these two, the plot thickened and the events unfolded to prepare me for a tale of brilliance.  Stimulated by the action of what Theo and Colby are enduring; I was biting my nails at the suspenseful scenes laid before me.  Hard decisions were placed in the hands of these two and my heart ached at what I saw coming...AND THEN...oh yes...it happened...an interesting twist to the ending that has now left me eagerly awaiting the release of book 2...*cries hysterically*Go get this book...seriously...absolute LOVE for this book...
