  Tully Larson has loved tropical storms since he was a kid and spent his summers with his dad in the wilds of Kakadu National Park. He's happiest outdoors, a rough and ready kind of guy who loves the power of Mother Nature and chasing the thrill of electrical storms every chance he gets. 
  Jeremiah Overton, a fulminologist from Melbourne, chases storms for a whole different reason. Lightning has shaped his entire life and he's driven to study it, to understand it, so heading to Kakadu in the middle of the storm season is a logical thing to do. After all, the Top End is the lightning capital of Australia. 
  Tully wasn't sure how a week at his remote bunker with an academic type would pan out. And Jeremiah didn't expect much from the storm-chasing cowboy who volunteered to take him. 
  But both men know all too well that when opposites attract, lightning strikes.

  Welcome to the family. 
  In a disheartened attempt to get her life back on track, Lucy takes up a live-in nanny position only to realize that the advert was misleading, sending her world spinning violently out of control. She was meant to look after kids and animals, not a menagerie of mythical monsters––of human and beast kind alike. 
  Little does her mysterious new employer know Lucy has her own dark secrets, and faced with the realization that she needs to grow her abilities to survive, she pushes herself too far, destroying the delicate balance between magic and technology. 
  To seize control of her new world and save herself Lucy must choose––Her life, or her humanity.
