Missing You by Meg Cabot 268 pages
Ever since a walk home on a particularly stormy day, Jessica Mastriani
has had an ability like no other. She became known worldwide as
Lightning Girl—a psychic who could find the location of anyone, dead or
alive. Jess finally had no choice but to embrace her new-found talent,
and ended up lending her skills to the U.S. government.
But
her work for them has taken a terrible toll, and Jess resurfaces months
later a shadow of her former self, her powers gone, Lightning Girl no
more. Her only hope is starting over in a new place, a big city where
nobody knows her. It's only when Rob Wilkins unexpectedly shows up on
her doorstep that she's forced to face her past. Rob, all the way from
back home, needs her help. But how can Jess, her powers gone, find
anyone, let alone the sister of a man she once loved . . . when she
can't even find herself?

Jessica Mastriana knew she wasn't going to be able to hide her psychic powers from the US government forever - but she never thought that she'd actually have something in common with one of their agents! - especially if that agent is Dr Cyrus Krantz who had previously been brought in to 'convince' Jess to join his elite team of 'specially gifted' crime-solvers - after all they were only interested in utilizing her special skills for their own devices weren't they? But when a local boy's disappearance and untimely death is attributed to a backwoods militia group, Jess' goal - to find another missing local child - and Dr Krantz's - to stop a group of madmen before they kill again - turn out to be one and the same...

When cheerleader Amber Mackey goes missing and is later found dead many blame Lightning Girl, Jess Mastriani, for not stopping the brutal killing. But when Amber went missing Jess was on holiday. It wasn't her fault! How could Jess have found her when she didn't know that she was missing in the first place? But when another cheerleader goes missing, Jess has a chance to redeem herself. But just how is she supposed to keep her psychic powers secret from the feds, while at the same time tracking down a murderer - especially when the number one suspect turns out to be living in Jess's own house?

When Lightning Strikes by Jenny Carroll (Meg Cabot)
When Lightning Strikes by Jenny Carroll (Meg Cabot) 266 pages
When lightning strikes there can only be trouble - as Jessica Mastriani finds out when she and best friend Ruth get caught in a thunderstorm. Not that Jess has ever really avoided trouble before. Instead of cheerleading there are fistfights with the football team and month-long stints in detention - not that detention doesn't have its good points - like sitting next to Rob - the cutest senior around! But this is trouble with a capital T - this trouble is serious. Because somehow, on that long walk home in the thunderstorm, Jess acquired a newfound talent. An amazing power that can be used for good...or for evil.
