She never wanted to be a superhero. Too much danger. Too much spandex.
Bella Bulluci’s big passion is the arts. Her big pain is being born into a family of superheroes. Bella might feel differently if her own superpower was one she could control—or get some use out of. Instead, her power is one of capricious luck— supercharged telekinesis. In other words, static electricity. Bella knows that’s not a power— just a jinx.
During a fundraiser for the art museum, Bella comes upon two things no Bigtime supergirl should be without: an ubervillain who plans to steal a priceless gem; and a dashing—if slightly shady—stranger named Debonair. He may have a reputation as a notorious playboy, but the real sparks are going to come from Bella, who’s going to learn just how well love and danger can go together.
Cheers for the “Bigtime” books:
“The superhero du jour in this smokin’ sequel to Estep’s debut (2007’s Karma Girl) is flame-wielding Fiera, a member of the souped-up supergroup the Fearless Five, based in Bigtime, N.Y. ... Feverishly clever plotting fuels Estep’s over-the-top romance.”
— Publishers Weekly
“It’s back to Bigtime, N.Y., for more sexy, sizzling and offbeat adventures with those zany superheroes. Fiona’s first-person viewpoint reveals a tough, cranky yet caring heroine whose literal flash temper can raise hell. Estep’s twist on the world of superheroes is kick-ass fun!” 4 stars
— Romantic Times
“Snappy and diverting.”
