Rose has spent her whole life taking care of everyone else. Her best friend. Her brother. Her boyfriend who deserves better than what she can give him. She is good at showing up for people. She is less good at knowing who she is when nobody needs anything from her.
New Year's Eve in Chicago was supposed to be just a party.
Then the demons showed up.
One alley fight and a pair of burning hands later, Rose learns two things: she is something called the Knight, a being born across lifetimes to protect someone she has never met, and the only way to keep the people she loves safe is to leave them behind.
So she runs.
Two months on the road. Gas station food and cheap motels and a growing body count of demons who made the mistake of getting too close. She is getting better at the fire. Better at the fighting. Less good at the part where she has to keep moving before anyone can matter.
Then a drag show flyer stapled to a telephone pole in New Hampshire changes her plans for one night.
Ignition is the first story in The Knight series, part of the In-Between collection. It is the story of a woman who finds out what she is made of when everything she was made for is taken away.
