Alexandria (Alex) Wilson has lived with her mom her entire life. It was always just the two of them. Then one day when they were at the mall a huge storm came and lightning struck. The lighting started a fire which burned the entire mall down. Hundreds of people were burned to ashes and Alex was one of the survivors. Coincidence? Not at all.

Alex soon learns that she has powers and she caused the fire. She has no idea what they are or how to control them. All she knows is that she killed all those people, her mom is dead, and no one can know about them.

With her mom now gone, she gets sent to her dad in a different country. Alex grew up hating her dad for abandoning her. Her dad doesn't even know he has a daughter.

Rowen Jones and his twin Finley Jones grew up practicing their powers with their loving parents. When they were ten tragedy struck and their parents died. They had no remaining family, so they began living with their family friend James Wilson. He was always like a second father to them. The twins have lived with him since.

Rowen has always been distant from others and kept to himself. He only has one friend at school but it's enough for him. All the girls are also after him but he could care less. Then this girl shows up and she's apparently Mr. Wilson's daughter.

How does Alex like living with her father? What happens when her powers are no longer a secret? What happens when she learns there are others like her and a school for them? And who are these twins that live with her dad?
