The only person who doesn’t ignore her or treat her with outright hostility is a fellow newcomer, known as the Rookie, who proves to be a different kind of problem-because Cassie decided a long time ago that she would never fall in love, no matter how considerate or attractive or good a cook he might be. With her career on the line, Cassie agrees to transfer to an old-school fire department on the outskirts of Boston, where she’ll have to prove herself to her new squad, who have made it clear that there’s no room for a “lady” in their fire station. But on the evening of the award ceremony, an impulsive decision, triggered by an encounter with a blast from her past, may jeopardize everything for which Cassie has worked so hard. She’s even the first woman to win the department’s prestigious Valor Award. With grit and unwavering determination, Cassie has worked her way up the ranks of the Austin, Texas, fire department, earning the respect and admiration of her male colleagues. Her job as a firefighter-and an extremely good one at that-gives her a sense of purpose that nothing else ever has. Some people work to live, but Cassie Hanwell lives to work.
