A Spark Rises (The Secret Fire Book 1)

The first episode of the Secret Fire series is the 15,000-word story of Adrienne Wu finding her place in a secret society of do-gooder superheroes.

The Secret Fire plucked Adrienne Wu from rural North Carolina and honed her into a trained warrior, but that doesn’t mean she’s clued in on the organization’s inner workings or what she’s gotten herself into. Saving damsels—and some dudes—in distress is her lot in life, and that’s fine with her. That is, until the Secret Fire leaders put her through a series of tests that shake her confidence in them. Now, she wants to know what they’re hiding.

When a recon mission uncovers a sinister plot, Adrienne’s loyalties are torn between the organization that’s given her a new lease on life and the men who are encroaching into her heart. She must decide how much she’s willing to risk for her compatriots, and whether she can truly learn to trust, when everything in her double life shows her she can’t.
