Shadowchild 
Benjamina James was like any other fifteen-year-old until one day a bolt of blue lightning struck her on the soccer field. She soon finds she has strange abilities including shooting fire and lightning from her hands, and that she can blend completely into shadows without a trace. With the help of an old family friend, "Bennie" learns she has been marked as a Guardian of the Light: one of an elite branch of defenders who keep the forces of evil at bay and hidden in darkness. But as Bennie learns to develop her powers she discovers dark secrets about her newfound friends, her family, and even herself.
Shadowchild is the first book in Thorntons Guardian of Light series, and represents a highly entertaining venture into the difficult terrain of young adult fantasy.

Caera (pronounced just like Keira Knightley) Thornton is the author of The Guardians of the Light Trilogy. Initially completed in 2012, Thornton relaunched the trilogy in serial form online as well as in print and eBook formats beginning in the summer of 2016.

The prose is professionally put down on the paper, and reads cleanly and smoothly. It's a fun, imaginative adventure story about a girl from Texas who finds herself suddenly with a supernatural talent. But the story doesn't read like a cliche superhero adventure at all. My only criticism would be that some of the adult characters read like adolescents, and some of the characters lack a
