The Awakening (The Lightning Conjurer #1) by Rachel Rener

Three years ago, Aspen (as she calls herself), woke up in an abandoned cabin without a single memory. Forced to exist entirely off the grid, she’s led a lonely life, but a quiet one… Until now. Suddenly, strange things are happening all around her: phantom tornadoes, exploding fireplaces, the strange man that’s been following her everywhere she goes.

When Aspen audits a college class for a semblance of normalcy, she’s shocked by the assistant professor’s cold disdain for her alone. Their heated confrontation turns a corner when Aspen panics, accidentally shattering every bulb in the classroom. That’s when Aiden realizes what she is… but he’s not the only one who’s been paying attention.

In her mission to discover who and what she is, Aspen must learn to control her powers, navigate her feelings for this new and mysterious ally, and unearth the shocking truth about her past.

After narrowly escaping Savannah and her Asterian thugs, Aspen has finally unearthed a clue to her forgotten past: a small brass key and a handwritten note that says ‘Start here’. With nothing but her resolve – and Aiden’s silver lighter – Aspen sets forth on a solo cross-country journey. But things begin to unravel quickly on the open road, and Aspen soon realizes that her biggest challenge on this trip won’t be making it to California in one piece, but keeping her growing powers in check… a feat that’s proving harder and harder to manage.
