As much as Ethan hates it, there's one thing he secretly loves about it: Adam, the project leader. He's a sweet, shy, boy-next-door type, certainly not someone Ethan should be interested in. Nonetheless, Ethan finds himself drawn to Adam.Faced with a devastating secret from The Lightning Project's past, Ethan comes up against the most difficult choice of his entire life. Does he take his place as a member of the team, accept his destiny as a superhero, and bury the part of him that questions authority at every turn? Or does he go back to the life he hated in Orchard Side? Victoria lives in Glasgow, Scotland with her French Bulldog, Charlie and her pug, Mr T.
