Publisher's Synopsis
Lila Winters is a mother of two who learns that she has the ability to control natural elements-abilities that exceed that of a normal human. Others like her who call themselves the Guardians are being hunted and manipulated by high-end companies and secret government departments who want to extort their abilities for money and power. Lila is approached by Alex Woods, a fellow Guardian who tries to recruit Lila into a secret government department called Mission Control, which seeks to promote the benevolent use of Guardian abilities to benefit humans. Lila, although reluctant to join, agrees to help Maxwell Eden, the rich father of a missing Guardian who is desperate to reunite with his daughter. Along their quest to find the missing Guardians, they discover ancient creatures thought to be legendary. They help Alex and Lila grow and learn and become strong allies in the fight against the Board. When these high-end businessmen discover there is a new Nature Guardian-considered a rare and powerful talent-they attempt to capture Lila and Alex to add to their collection. Under the surveillance of Mission Control, the constant threat from the Board, the struggles of maintaining her family life, and the excitement of her developing abilities, Lila's adventures turn her typical suburban life upside down.
