Fluorescence: Fire Starter, by P. Anastasia
264 pages, with a 5-star rating from 14 reviews

"This book is so smartly written and immediately hooks you and won't let go. The characters are deep and relatable, the passion is real and the twists and turns are great! I am honestly amazed the first volume manages to capture so much in 251 pages but immediately you want more. Thank you for proving me wrong in that you are never too old for a captivating story." -- Amazon Reviewer

Book 1 of the Fluorescence tetralogy.
Fluorescence lives in her bloodstream. It's unpredictable and could flare up anywhere, anytime, exposing her secret to the world. Alice was a normal teenager until a dying race of aliens chose her and a handful of others to help preserve an endangered form of bioluminescent DNA known as Fluorescence. Now she and the others must hide their "condition" from the rest of the world, while trying to learn the truth behind the mysterious living light.

"My name's Alice Green.
It's not my real name, but if you knew what was
going on, you'd understand why I need to be careful.
I've been infected with bioluminescence--fluorescent energy. I can't control when it appears. It's volatile,
and that's what scares me the most. May this never happen to you or to anyone you care about.
I hope you will never wake to discover this fire burning beneath your skin--a spark of living, breathing color crackling through your veins.
I hope, for your sake, you never meet me."
