Lightning Nerve

Fourteen years ago, Zara Bolt lost her parents. She lost her sister. She lost everything.

The McGillycuddy Academy for the Kings and Queens of Nature is not just any school…

It’s like any other year at the academy for Zara and her friends: midnight parties, breaking the rules, fights in the hallways, the usual.

But the new teacher is anything but ordinary. And the closer she looks, the more her family’s past begins to haunt her.

Zara Bolt must not get distracted. And falling for the new guy is certainly a distraction. But how can Zara keep focused if her heart is finally opening up after 14 years? Her world is falling down around her, but will she get caught in the backfire?

Theresa Galvin lives in the middle of nowhere in Ireland, growing up surrounded by fields and animals with never a dull moment. She loves playing the fiddle with her club and watching her fingers flying over the strings so fast, it looks like they aren’t even there.

She spends her time writing, reading, avoiding doing homework and appeasing her sweet addiction. She loves laughing and believes that everything can be solved with a smile.
