Cassie can feel her resolve slipping.but will she jeopardize her place in a career where she's worked so hard to be taken seriously? And because of the advice her old captain gave her: don't date firefighters. Except for the handsome rookie, who doesn't seem to mind having Cassie around. Hazing, a lack of funding, and poor facilities mean that the firemen aren't exactly thrilled to have a 'lady' on the crew, even one as competent and smart as Cassie. The tough, old-school Boston firehouse is as different from Cassie's old job as it could possibly be.

But when her estranged and ailing mother asks her to uproot her life and move to Boston, it's an emergency of a kind Cassie never anticipated. As one of the only female firefighters in her Texas firehouse, she's seen her fair share of them, and she's excellent at dealing with other people's tragedies.
