Either gifted or cursed, Paul can’t touch anything electronic. Cell phones fry, breakers trip, a whole section of the electrical grid collapses on a bad day. But now, having moved to Pittsburgh with his twin to help Cooper and Ash, his “gift” threatens to unveil the special powers of them all.

Russ teaches high-voltage techniques to line workers at a local tech institute. He hides his mental illness of “seeing things” as best as he can - until Paul lands in his classroom. Paul, whose field glows the same as the strongest appliance, is an irresistible young man who strives not for higher learning, but for control.

Their mutual gifts mesh as though fated, and their attraction sets off sparks.

Book 3 of Disorderly Elements series can be listened to as a stand-alone. The author wraps the charged clash of technology and the paranormal in a heartwarming story of courage and fated romance where two men find their place in the world, as well as a safe haven for their heart.

This book took me by surprise...I really enjoyed the relationship building between Paul and Russ. Watching Paul learn to use his abilities was very intriguing even if I didn't understand all of the science behind it (that was never my best subject haha). This story is well written and well balanced in my opinion. I didn't read the first two books in the series and at first I thought I was going to be lost but I wasn't, the author does a good job of catching you up with what's going on without drowning out the story.

The narration in this story wasn't the best I've experienced nor was it the worst. I do feel like the narrator should have distinguised between the different voices a little better because there were a few times that I had to back up to figure out who was talking but overall his voice was enjoyable.

Different but very enjoyable.

The main characters in this story are Paul and Russ, Paul, who can't touch anything electronic, and yes, I guess you can see how well that will go in our modern life. But then, he moves with his twin to Pittsburgh, with Ash and Cooper, and things get... complicated.

Which is why he tries to get a better understanding of his power, and hey! Russ teaches high-voltage techniques and Paul decides to attend to his class. You can say their first meeting was charged :P And Russ, he can 'see' electrical charges, and he can help Paul to control his gift. Their gifts work together, and the mutual attraction is obvious since the first moment.

I love to see how they work and grow together, how Paul gets control of his powers. But there is also the matter of Jared and the katana, and of course, Brian Clegg is back causing problems,

A fantastic new instalment on this series.

Sadly, Mace Earl Finn is good, but I don't like when the narrator is changed in the middle of the series :/

New characters, new powers!
