The Cassidy Chronicles - The Spark Before the Fire

Her wedding ended in gunfire. Now she's running for her life-and fighting for a future worth building.

Aiyana Cassidy wanted one perfect day.

She had the partner of her dreams. A quiet ceremony. A life of science, invention, and possibility ahead of her. But when the minister pulled a gun, everything changed.

Now she and her wife Kendra are on the run across a divided America-a patchwork of independent nations and power-hungry factions where freedom is relative and safety is a luxury. They don't know who wants them dead, or why. All they know is that it started at the altar, and it hasn't stopped since.

Kendra Cassidy is nobody's damsel. Raised in shadows and trained for survival, she knows how to disappear, fight back, and dig up answers people would kill to keep buried. Cass is brilliant. Kendra is dangerous. Together, they're impossible to stop.

As they crisscross territories from the Northern Imperium to the California Confederacy, Cass and Kendra uncover pieces of a plan bigger than either of them-a plot that threatens to tip an already fragile world into chaos. To stop it, they'll have to rely on old contacts, new friends, and the kind of bond that's forged under fire and tested by every choice.

This isn't just about survival. It's about justice. It's about truth. And it's about proving that two people who refuse to back down can be enough to change everything.

Smart, fast-paced, and full of heart, Cassidy Chronicles The Spark Before the Fire kicks off a genre-blending saga that mixes political intrigue, breakneck action, and found-family loyalty with sharp dialogue and characters who refuse to be anything less than extraordinary.

For fans of Firefly, The Expanse, and clever women with their fingers on the trigger and their hearts on the line.
