Answer:

<h3>it had such a great appeal that drove her crazy.</h3><h3 />

Explanation:

The author uses the phrase "killing power" to describe the eyes of her secret love because<u> it had such a great appeal that drove her crazy</u>. It made her feel  <u>light-headed and dizzy making her almost fall into the ground.</u>
