Fantasy | Romance Paranormal

The town of Magellan is rich with history and folklore for those who believe in that sort of thing. The believers understand there is more out there than just mere humans; Stormwalkers, Firewalkers, shape shifters, witches, demons and gods are part of the real world. And their little town is in the midst of a dangerous vortex that they fight to protect and keep evil creatures from entering earth. The unbelievers find any excuse to explain how a lightning strike can literally blow up a building or a person is not possessed by a god. So when a local resident and believer hires Janet Begay, a Stormwalker, to investigate a missing persons case, the local Chief of Police (a total unbeliever) takes offense and would rather arrest Janet for crimes she didn't commit than listen to her side of the story. Janet is a Stormwalker with the ability to draw on energy from a storm and use its power like a weapon against demons and other beings escaping the vortex. Not long ago, she was unable to control her power, which led to innocent accidents getting her in trouble with the law and unbelievers. She now has more control, but after she uses the storm, she gets raging headaches and violently sick unless someone siphons off the energy. Unfortunately, the only man who can help her is no longer in her life; she left Mick over five years ago to go her own way. As an Investigator, she has an uncanny way of finding the lost. Now Janet has been asked to help locate a missing woman in the one place that is most dangerous for her. The moment she lands herself in trouble, Mick shows up in force. STORMWALKER is an exciting start to a series with an electrifying blend of paranormal and real world. Secrets and betrayal are only the beginning. A fun read!

SUMMARY

Half-Navajo Janet Begay comes to Magellan to investigate the mysterious disappearance of the police chief's daughter. But the people of Magellan sense that Janet is not what she seems, and they're right. Janet possesses extraordinary power which is tied to the storms that waft across the desert. The only person who can control her when she's caught in the storm's evocative power is Mick, a dark-haired, blue-eyed biker Janet can't seem to touch with her powers. He can weild fire and not get burned, and Janet's never sure where he goes when they're not together. Together they investigate mysterious disappearances, which Janet fears are tied to her mother's people, the mythical gods from below the earth. They are helped along the way by Coyote and Crow, but these shapeshifting gods have their own agendas.
