The power of lightning is in his touch... Russell Eaglin is a cop like no other. Struck by lightning while chasing two thieves through a summer thunderstorm, the incident leaves his body humming with a power he doesn't understand and an ability that allows him to stop a suspect with just one touch... Andrea Rosselli is just transferring into a new Police District. The last thing she wants is a partner who has warm hands, golden green eyes and a smile that makes her toes curl. Yet that's what she gets in Russ. It's a match made for trouble. Out to prove the rumors from her old District aren't true, Andrea doesn't want to get involved with Russ. She wants to concentrate on the job, as does he, but Andrea makes him want what he's no longer sure he can have. Could intimacy cause an accidental, and potentially lethal, discharge of his power? Or can he risk becoming her lightning lover? Struggling against the attraction growing between them, matters become more difficult when people in their patrol area start dying and they end up dodging more than each other when bullets begin to fly. Russ and his special powers seem to be all that can save him and Andrea from becoming the next victims. But once Andrea discovers the truth about him, will she still care? Or will Russ's power forever keep them apart?
